history

Company founder Paul Craemer

In 1912 Paul Craemer (1874–1940) founded Press-, Stanz- und Hammerwerke GmbH in Herzebrock , a company for processing metals . A rolling mill was built on the new company premises on the outskirts of Herzebrock in 1928 .

After the Second World War , the company's founder's eldest grandson, Hans-Joachim Brandenburg, began rebuilding the company. In the 1950s, the company developed into an important supplier of agricultural machinery . In 1958 the company began processing plastics and initially manufactured large containers. In 1967 Craemer developed the world's first plastic pallet molded in one piece and received a patent for it in the same year . Disposal containers were added in the 1980s. In 1978, with the demolition of the hot rolling mill, metal production was finally switched to processing cold-rolled sheet metal. Craemer established itself as an automotive supplier in the 1980s with metal formed parts for motor vehicles.

In 1997 production started in the metal works in Liptovský Mikuláš. In 2001 Craemer took over Kliko-Entsorgungssysteme GmbH , in 2006 the plastics plant in Telford was opened and on May 1, 2009 the sales company was founded in the greater Paris area. In 2015 Craemer took over an established, German metalworking company in Attendorn in the Sauerland (Olpe district)
