AL-PRO Gerd Böhm GmbH

What AL-PRO Gerd Böhm GmbH does

AL-PRO Gerd Böhm GmbH is a German contract manufacturer (Auftragshersteller) founded in 1998 by Gerd Böhm in Göttingen and operated as a family-owned GmbH. The company specialises in electronics manufacturing and configurating services and functions as a system supplier accompanying enterprise customers through the full manufacturing lifecycle, from initial sample construction (from quantity 1) and process development with FMEA/PPAP through to serial production, packaging, and logistics. AL-PRO operates two production sites in the Göttingen area and employs over 50 people as of 2023.

The service portfolio spans cable assembly (Kabelkonfektionierung), PCB assembly (Leiterplattenbestückung), electromechanical and control cabinet assembly, hose/tubing assembly, adhesive and welding processes, contract filling, testing and cleaning services, and custom die-cutting. These operations are supported by specialised production environments including ESD-protected areas compliant with DIN EN 61340-5-1/2, a Sauberraum, and over 200 m² of TÜV-certified Class 7 cleanroom space (DIN EN ISO 14644-1) with three autonomous cleanroom systems, GMP Class D alignment, and laminar-flow boxes enabling Class 5 air quality at point of use. The company holds IPC-A-610 certified personnel credentials, DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 quality certification, UL-ZPFW2/8 and UL508A certifications (authorising products for US/Canadian markets), DIN EN ISO 11137 sterilisation validation, and an EcoVadis Silver sustainability rating.

Revenue is generated through contract manufacturing and managed system-supply services for enterprise customers in medical technology, laboratory, biotechnology, life science, climate technology, optical, laser, and electronics industries. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with no intermediaries; the company explicitly serves only B2B customers (entrepreneurs, traders, and freelancers, not consumers per §13 BGB). The company remains privately held by the Böhm family, with second-generation leadership formalised in 2018 when Christine Böhm assumed the deputy managing director role alongside founder Gerd Böhm.

Core offering

AL-PRO is a certified contract manufacturer (Auftragshersteller) in electronics assembly and configurating, providing product-specific production solutions from prototype (batch size 1) through serial production. The company operates as a system supplier covering first sample construction, process development and validation, IPC-A-610 compliant PCB and electromechanical assembly, cable and hose configurating, contract filling, die-cutting, packaging/kitting, and testing/cleaning, delivered inside ESD-protected and Class 7 cleanroom environments for regulated industries.

Product overview

AL-PRO Gerd Böhm GmbH is a contract manufacturer (Auftragshersteller) offering a portfolio of specialized manufacturing and assembly services rather than a unified software product. The core offerings consist of: Kabelkonfektionierung (cable assembly), Baugruppenmontage/Schaltschrankmontage (electromechanical and control cabinet assembly), Leiterplattenbestückung (PCB assembly), Schlauchkonfektionierung (hose/tubing assembly), Klebe- und Schweißverfahren (adhesive and welding), Konfektionierung und Verpackung (assembly and packaging), Lohnabfüllung (contract filling), Prüf- und Reinigungsdienstleistungen (testing and cleaning), and Auftragsstanzen (custom die-cutting). These services are supported by specialized production environments including ESD-protected areas, Sauberraum (cleanroom), and Reinraumfertigung (TÜV-certified Class 7 cleanrooms with GMP Class D alignment). Systemlösungen provides an integrated offering combining initial sample construction, process development/validation, and series production as a full-system supplier.
