FEITZINGER Kipper- und Fahrzeugbau GmbH

What FEITZINGER Kipper- und Fahrzeugbau GmbH does

FEITZINGER Kipper- und Fahrzeugbau GmbH is a family-owned Austrian commercial vehicle body manufacturer operating from a single site at Brünner Strasse 140, Gerasdorf bei Wien. Founded in 1923 (with firmographic records dating to 1898) and run by the Feitzinger family across three generations, the company produces bespoke tipper bodies, flatbeds, semi-trailers, container exchange systems, body change systems, and roll-off platforms for commercial vehicles ranging from 3.5 to 40 tonnes gross vehicle weight. Manufacturing employs Hardox 450 wear steel, aluminium and steel trapezoidal profiles, and integrated hydraulic lifting systems, with all products made to individual customer specifications under a "Made in Austria" craftsmanship positioning.

The business operates a sales-led, quote-based model with two revenue streams: custom vehicle body manufacturing and after-sales service and repair (including vehicle inspections, crane and tail lift servicing, hydraulic maintenance, and painting). It serves three primary verticals — transport operators, construction companies (including publicly listed Porr), and municipalities/communities (including Österreichisches Rotes Kreuz and waste-management firm Saubermacher) — and supplies ancillary components from partners such as Palfinger, Hiab, Hyva, BPW, Knorr-Bremse, and Goldhofer. Distribution is direct, single-country (DACH), with no dealer network and a public-procurement channel via Austria's BBG.

The company is small (30 employees; firmographic data shows 5) and privately held with no external investors, no funding rounds, and no public ticker. It sustains operations through stable supplier relationships, an in-house testing hall (Prüfhalle, completed summer 2021), a 2,500 m² rooftop photovoltaic installation, and an ongoing apprenticeship programme in vehicle construction technology that supports craft continuity while a third-generation family member assumes process management responsibilities.
