Our Vision: Innovations with enhanced safety
At Armbruster GmbH, we present ourselves as a medium-sized, family-run company in the second generation, based in Steinach (Black Forest).
With our innovative strength and long-term success planning, we are aligning our company securely for the future. Company size and independence gives our business partners and employees long-term planning security.
We are a company well known for innovation, quality and reliability in several markets: Our area of expertise is the production of complex components for industry as in the contract manufacturing of implants for medical technology. We strive to achieve a leading role in contract manufacturing of complex surgical instruments within Europe.
As the “A-Team”, we daily face the challenges of manufacturing customer products with process reliability and making them more innovative. Social responsibility for our colleagues and environment meets high standards within the company. With resource-saving production, we provide security to the environment and future generations.
Sustainability
We put a lot of thought and effort into energy efficiency and sustainability troughout our company’s building itself. Our air conditioning runs completely off of geothermal energy, combined with a heat pump technology, using excess heat from the machines to heat up the entire building. This is just one of many examples of a high level of environmental care and a much greater degree of sustainability in our production. We are able to power all of our offices trough the use of a photovoltaic system without the need for any external power sources.
