Background

The Christian Gierth company was founded in early 1996 purely as a company trading in cutters and tools for keyseating machines. Mr Gierth had already been working in this field for some ten years. This was a one-man operation. Cutters and tools were purchased from other manufacturers and sold on to customers.

Today's manufacturing workshop was built in 1997 and in-house production started in January 1998. At this time the first two employees were taken on. One of these already had 16 years' experience in this sector. In the same year the first in-house keyseating machines were delivered.

Current status

Since January 01 2001 we have been operating under the name Christian Gierth GmbH. Since then we have employed 13 staff members. Four of these are primarily involved in sales activities and 9 in production and despatch.

We have now supplied over 100 of our keyseating machines. Several thousand cutters and tools are manufactured in a wide range of finishes every year.

Quality and Productivity

In every area of production, from construction and production planning to manufacturing and quality control, we all work in close collaboration. This enables us to constantly improve both quality and productivity. Ideas for improving the products, especially the machines, are immediately implemented.

Flexibility and speed

Because of our flexible structure, we are able to adopt customer requirements quickly. We can supply custom-made cutters substantially faster than the majority of our competitors. All our processes are as customer-focused as possible.
