Corporate structure and leadership competence
" TO TRY SOMETHING NEW ON THE BASIS OF A SOLID FOUNDATION; TO DREAM THE FUTURE AND WORK TOGETHER TO TRANSFORM THE FEASIBLE INTO REALITY."
Milestones
It all started in 1980 in a garage. This was where the two company founders Paul Kramer and Karl Best welded together their first customer order, a pressure container. In the meantime, Kramer & Best Anlagenbau GmbH has developed into a global enterprise with more than 165 employees. This dynamic development was made possible by the highest degree of customer orientation: reliable on-time delivery and the great commitment of the employees of Kramer & Best are the essential competitive advantages.
For every order we also try to put ourselves in our customer’s place. Problems are not always foreseeable, particularly with complex systems. This high degree of customer orientation pays off. Many customers have been with us for years and put their trust in Kramer & Best.
