Nürmont – 20 years in Freiberg – Nr. 1/2011 (29.4.2011)
The Nürmont site in Freiberg, Germany was founded in the Spring of 1991

Freiberg. Nürmont founded the Saxon site from a Freiberg electronic materials department on 1 April 20 years ago. In addition to the know-how of the employees, the new owners also acquired a high quality set of machinery from Nuremberg.

The aim was to manufacture in-house the spare parts necessary for assembly and relocation or special designs. Through the expertise offered at Freiberg, the portfolio has been constantly expanded and is an indispensable factor in the Nürmont range of services. In the last 20 years, the business has continuously grown and developed into a high-turnover site. One year after its foundation, the company moved into its own company building "Am Junger Löwe Schacht 11", which is now its headquarters. Five years later, more capacity was needed. Once a 1000 m2 assembly hall, complete with cranes, had been built on the Freiberg site and the machinery had been purchased, Nürmont was in a position to cater for a variety of different needs.

The company offers an extensive range of services on a total area of 8000 m2. In addition to the manufacture of machine parts and welded assemblies, Nürmont also offers services in the industrial assembly and service area. Thus, more than 500 tonnes of material (steel, aluminium, brass and plastic) are processed every year for machine parts, special machines, and research and laboratory facilities.

Baumüller Group’s expertise in automation is utilised for the mechanical and electrical modernisation of machinery and entire plants. The surface finishing of stainless steels completes the company’s service portfolio.

Today, around 45 staff are employed on the site. In addition to the administrative and sales operations, there are technical and commercial departments staffed by engineers, machinists, industrial mechanics and welders.

At the end of May, the Executive Board will be inviting customers, suppliers and employees to the premises in Freiberg for the 20th anniversary. The site manager in Freiberg, Volker Böhm, Managing Director Jochen Loy and Company Secretary of Nürmont, Klaus Preisser are looking forward to appearing at the event with interesting discussions, musical entertainment and a generous buffet.
