What GANNOMAT does

GANNOMAT (ERWIN GANNER GmbH & Co KG) is an Austrian manufacturer of specialized woodworking machines, headquartered in Telfs, Tyrol. Founded in 1956 by Hermann Ganner and managed since 1980 by his son Erwin Ganner, the company operates as a family-owned business now in its second and third generation of ownership. The company designs, develops, and produces precision woodworking equipment including CNC machining centers, dowelhole drilling machines, double line drilling machines, combined drilling-gluing-dowel inserting machines, hinge inserting machines, case clamps, frame drilling-mortising machines, and fully custom special machines. All development and manufacturing take place in-house at the Telfs facility, supported by proprietary CAD workstations, software, and electronic engineering departments. The company also sells used and refurbished machines and provides spare parts and technical support, including remote online diagnostics.

The company's customer base spans small custom cabinetmakers through large furniture industry producers, with horizontal segmentation across the woodworking value chain. GANNOMAT distributes 95% of its production through a worldwide dealer network spanning at least 10 countries across Europe, North America, and Oceania, supplemented by direct sales and showroom demonstrations at headquarters. The go-to-market model is sales-led, supported by participation in major international trade fairs (LIGNA, HOLZ-HANDWERK, AWFS, IWF), professional consulting services, and a multilingual digital presence. The company maintains a state-certified apprenticeship program since 1973, positioning workforce development as a core operational capability. GANNOMAT earned three regional awards, including state-certified teaching company status from the Austrian Federal Government and recognition as a traditional Tyrolean business.
