UKB - FROM GARAGE TO QUALITY PRODUCER

 

...IT‘S NOT THAT FAR AT ALL. OUR SUCCESS STORY FROM LONE WARRIOR TO A GLOBAL OPERATING BUSINESS


The start of the company was anything but comfortable. For the founder, Uwe Krumm there was neither a fancy office nor an impressive production hall. But there was the idea and unconditional drive that it will work out. Very quickly, Uwe Krumm made a name for himself and has grown to become a leading figure in the press brake tool industry.

A quantum leap towards today’s quality-orientated company was the building of new facilities in 1996 in Burbach’s industrial area. The following years saw the company, the staff, the machinery and the related business constantly evolving and developing. Today, we can proudly state that the company is a significant worldwide partner for press brake tools and special tools.
