  Company | History
   
 
In 1880 the great grandfather of current General Manager Eng. Herbert Bremstaller founded the Bremstaller Smithing business, providing horseshoes, horse accessories and wagon parts until after the second world war 2. 

Metal work is a proud and strong family tradition that goes back 4 generations.

 

   

In 1960 in the company moved with the times and became a small but dynamic 2-Man
metal working outfit.  Herbert Bremstaller Sr. And his wife Doris would lead the company to make farm machinery, perform repairs and provide general metalworking services to the region.
Through hard work, innovation and a strong belief in delivering quality products, the company would grow into the innovative and competitive business it is today.



 
   
 
In 1964 the Bremstaller company had grown and a work hall of 400 m² was erected to meet demand for production.  The company diversified into steelworks, aluminium window and door frame manufacturing and specialist finishing work. Bremstaller, having evolved and shown itself competitive in the regional marketplace would now see itself catering to the wider Austrian market. 


 
   
 
A second workplace was purchased on Karlinger Street, a town street in Hartkirchen,
and a factory facility larger than 800 m² was erected. This further expanded production capacity to meet demand for high-quality products.




 
   
 
The business began to specialise in working with stainless steel with the development of characteristic hot water and heat transfer technology. 



 
   
 
In 1986, the firm developed its ground-breaking heat exchanger technology which it manufactured and offered to the market with resounding success. This event was another hallmark of the firm’s innovation.
 

 
   
 
This year would see the building of a modern 12-edged office building in  Karlinger street. Further, the firm invested in a pickling facility to ensure the highest standards of stainless steel products, clean and free from corrosion.

 

 
   
 
Since 1992 the business has specialized in the development and production of products made of stainless steel. 

 
   
 
The computer-controlled testing facility in Haizinger Street is built.  With this new facility, new heat exchanger variants are developed, as well as customer-specific solutions that can be thoroughly tested before going to market.  At the same time the facility enabled fully automated pressure and temperature measuring to be carried out.  Special software was also developed to calculate and dimension and the best possible hot water solution for specific customer needs within minutes. 


 
   
  ECOTHERM Mexico office began marketing ECOTHERM in the Americas. Products on offer include the economiser products for Hotels and hospitals and heat exchangers for pool heat exchange.

In 1996, the firm purchased a metalworks in Hungary and founded ECOTHERM

This was predominantly a cost-cutting measure in the production of oil separators and industrial components.  The size of the ECOTHERM Hungary facilities offers much available production room and the know-how of  ECOTHERM’s Hungarian personnel serves as a capacity in reserve for future expansions.
