Schweißtechnik Stausberg GmbH

What Schweißtechnik Stausberg GmbH does

Schweißtechnik Stausberg GmbH is a family-owned specialist welding technology distributor and service partner founded in 1992 by Franz Stausberg in Betzdorf, Rhineland-Palatinate, and now managed in its second generation by Dipl.-Ing. Thomas Stausberg and Dipl.-Kfm. Patrick Stausberg. The company distributes and services a full portfolio of welding equipment (MIG/MAG, WIG/TIG, manual laser, stick/E-Hand, stud, plasma, submerged arc, and resistance welding), automated and manual cutting technology (CNC plasma, oxy-fuel, laser, and waterjet systems), environmental/fume-extraction technology, welding consumables, personal protective equipment, oxy-fuel and propane technology, workshop equipment, automation and robotics solutions, press brakes, and industrial gases, with approximately 2,000 products stocked for immediate delivery. It holds premium distribution partnerships with leading manufacturers including voestalpine Böhler Welding (Gold Partner since 2015, repeatedly renewed), KEMPPI, ABICOR BINZEL (including ROBO-Partner+ status for automation), MERKLE, OPTREL, NEDERMAN, KEMPER, INE, and others, and is TÜV-certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015.

The company operates from two locations — the Betzdorf headquarters (Gewerbepark 15, with service center, warehouse, and gas center) and a Mülheim-Kärlich branch (Jungenstraße 14, opened in 2005) — covering Rhineland-Palatinate, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Hesse. Its go-to-market is sales-led, combining inside sales (Innendienst) and outside sales (Außendienst) with regional territory consultants, technical welding specialists (IWS/EWS-certified), on-site service technicians, and application support. Revenue is generated through equipment and consumables sales, equipment rental and leasing, maintenance/testing/calibration services (per DVS 3009 and DIN IEC 60974-14), repair and custom-fabrication services, and welding technical consulting. Customers range from small locksmiths and craft workshops to globally active machinery manufacturers, served primarily across two horizontal segments: industry (Industrieunternehmen) and trade/crafts (Handwerk).

• ABICOR BINZEL: German manufacturer of MIG/MAG, TIG and plasma welding/cutting torches with 70+ years of history. A premium partner of Stausberg (BINZEL Best Partner 2017), Binzel is comparable as a directly adjacent welding-component OEM whose torch technology is core to Stausberg's distributed portfolio and whose direct-sales efforts can compete with specialist dealers.
• Miller Electric Mfg. LLC: Global welding equipment manufacturer (Dimension, XMT, Multimatic). Comparable as a broad welding OEM competing for the same industrial and trade customers, with growing direct-sales and automation capabilities relevant to specialist dealers like Stausberg.
• Lorch Schweißtechnik GmbH: German welding equipment manufacturer (MIG/MAG, TIG, plasma, robotic welding) based in Auenwald. Comparable as a German-origin welding OEM whose products overlap heavily with Stausberg's distributed portfolio and whose direct-sales channels can substitute for specialist-dealer relationships in Germany.
• Fronius International GmbH: Austrian/global manufacturer of welding systems (TPS/i, TransSteel), welding automation and robotics. Comparable as a major welding OEM whose products overlap with Stausberg's portfolio and whose direct-sales and digital channels can disintermediate regional specialist dealers.
• ESAB Corporation: Global welding and cutting equipment manufacturer (Renegade, Warrior, Rebel lines). Comparable as a broad welding/cutting OEM whose equipment competes head-to-head with Stausberg's distributed brands and whose automation/cutting solutions overlap with the company's CNC cutting portfolio.
• DINSE GmbH: German manufacturer of welding equipment, automation, and robot welding systems. Comparable as a welding-automation specialist whose offerings overlap directly with Stausberg's automation/robotics integration business (seam welding, CNC cutting integration, torch positioning).
• REHM Schweißtechnik GmbH: German welding equipment manufacturer based in Uhingen producing MIG/MAG, TIG, plasma, and welding automation systems. Comparable as a competing German welding OEM offering overlapping equipment and automation solutions to industrial and trade customers.

Others

• SCHWEISSRING Fachgruppe: Cooperative expert group of independent welding specialist dealers in Germany. Schweißtechnik Stausberg joined SCHWEISSRING on 1 January 2021.
