history
In 1964 the company was founded as Industriebau Fürstenwalde (IBF). Industriebau Fürstenwalde was integrated into a large corporation-like structure - the East Construction and Assembly Combine, based in Frankfurt (Oder) . The combine was directly subordinate to the building ministry of the GDR and was responsible for all structural building projects in the area of today's state of Brandenburg. For the Fürstenwalder company, this meant tasks in the heavy and basic industries, mechanical engineering and petrochemicals. IBF built the cement works in Rüdersdorf , large refinery plants in Schwedt and the steel rolling mill in Eisenhüttenstadt . Further orders came from the National People's Army - many of the numerous bunker systems east of Berlin were built by the Fürstenwalde industrial building.
The company in Fürstenwalde last employed more than 2,000 people in branches in Bernau , Eberswalde and temporarily in Schwedt at the end of the 1980s .
Developments during the turning point
Even before the fall of the Wall, the company withdrew from the planned economy. After the fall of 1989/90, the GDR economy was privatized . The Swedish construction company Siab became aware of Industriebau Fürstenwalde. The Swedish company had already carried out many building projects in the GDR before 1989 and wanted to gain a foothold in the East German market. In 1991 Siab took over the IBF.
The 1990s until today
While Siab Bau initially offered a wide range of construction services, the company concentrated more and more on residential construction in the mid-1990s. With the “platform concept” introduced there, Siab Bau developed a process-optimized control method that enabled the company, as a general contractor and property developer, to combine all construction phases in one hand. “Everything from a single source” is the company's principle to this day. In 1997 the Swedish construction company NCC took over the competitor Siab and with it the Fürstenwalder company. As NCC Germany, the company continued to expand the residential segment. Today the company is the largest project developer in this division in Germany. In the spring of 2016 it became known that the parent company NCC wanted to spin off its NCC Housing division and go public as an independent company under the brand name Bonava . In May 2016, the German NCC companies were renamed Bonava .
Sponsorship
Bonava is particularly active as a sponsor in the area around Fürstenwalde, where the company's German headquarters are located. For example, Bonava regularly sponsors the Fürstenwalder Summer Reading Club, the Fürstenwalder Baudrachen dragon boat team and the Fürstenwald dragon boat regatta. Since 2016 the former S-OS Arena of the football club FSV Union Fürstenwalde has been called Bonava-Arena .
