With tradition into the future

The companies “Metalltechnik Hemmerlein” and “Glienke Gerätebau GmbH” can both look back on long traditions.

The company “Metalltechnik Hemmerlein” has manufactured and machined steel, aluminium and stainless steel parts using the latest equipment for over 20 years.

In November 2017, the two companies merged to form “Glienke-Hemmerlein Metall GmbH”.
