The Kampa GmbH is a manufacturer of prefabricated houses in Germany with headquarters in the Swabian Aalen-Waldhausen . The company was founded in 2009 and emerged from the listed Kampa AG (formerly: Kampa-Haus AG).

History of the former Kampa AG

The foundation stone for the company was laid by the carpenter Heinrich Wolf, who founded a carpentry workshop in Minden-Dützen (today North Rhine-Westphalia ) in 1900 . In 1945 the master carpenter Eugen Kampa took over the business. The first weekend houses were produced in 1960 and the company expanded under the leadership of Wilfried Kampa, who joined the company in 1965 after completing his degree in civil engineering . In 1966 the first prefabricated house was presented - a type of bungalow that became a bestseller. In 1985 Kampa-Haus AG was founded and went public in 1986. In 1998 the Allgäu family company Libella and in 1999 Novy-Haus in Austria were taken over. Further startups and takeovers in the Eastern European market followed. In 2000 the company celebrated its 100th anniversary at all locations.

From 2002 the company was converted into a stock corporation called "Kampa AG". In November 2006, the previous majority shareholder Wilfried Kampa sold his stake to the financial investor Triton. At that time the company had around 1600 employees. The Kampa Group recently included the German house building brands Kampa (Minden), Hebel Haus ( Alzenau ), ExNorm ( Steinheim am Albuch ), Libella (Ziesar), Creaktiv ( Waltershausen ) and Novy-Haus in Austria, Casa Libella in Italy, TrendHaus in Hungary and Kampa-Budizol in Poland. Service companies and suppliers for the entire group were the assembly company Kampa Baulogistik GmbH (Minden), the financing company Hausbau-Finanz GmbH (Minden), the MB Keller- und Massivbau Brück GmbH ( Brück ) and the Vewa-Projekt Grundstücksentwicklungsgesellschaft mbH (Minden). In addition to the headquarters in Minden, Kampa AG operated house production at seven other locations and precast concrete plants at three locations . The company dealt with the construction planning and construction , mainly in the prefabricated construction . As part of the realignment of the company, it was announced on October 2, 2007 that the plants in Waltershausen (Thuringia), Kinding (Bavaria) and at the headquarters in Minden will be closed by the end of 2007. In addition, in the future the prefabricated house area should only appear under the name "Kampa". After a mandatory offer to the other shareholders, Triton last held approx. 75% of the capital. The former board of directors consisting of the chairman Elmar Schmidt, Markus Schreyögg and Josef Haas were responsible for initiating this. Negotiations about social plans , takeover of the trademark rights and exploitation of the company became apparent since the sale to the investor Triton.

At the beginning of 2009 Kampa was still assuming sales of 200 million euros and a good order backlog. After losses of around 23 to 24 million euros in 2008, Kampa applied for insolvency proceedings in March 2009, which opened on June 3, 2009. On June 10, 2009, the insolvency administrator Werner Schreiber announced the failure of talks with potential investors . Takeover negotiations with the investor Triton were also unsuccessful up to this point. Schreiber announced that he would immediately lay off the approximately 800 employees in 2009 and operate a single exploitation of the company's locations and property.

The trade union secretary of IG Bau , Bodo Matthey, responsible for the company, said it could not go well that the production of the exclusive houses by hand in Minden was given up and only relied on the automated production facilities in Ziesar and Steinheim.

Establishment of the current Kampa GmbH

Josef Haas, a former board member of Kampa AG, took over the licenses for the trademark rights, a nationwide model house network and the visitor center in Steinheim am Albuch in the newly founded Kampa GmbH from the former Kampa AG. In addition to the planning and construction of prefabricated houses, the range of services also includes the search for land, dealing with authorities and financing. The company pays special attention to energy efficiency in its one and two-family houses and is the first manufacturer in the prefabricated house sector to offer the standard equipment as an efficiency house plus (see plus energy house ) with the quality and energy efficiency standard KfW 40 efficiency house .

Kampa is represented in Germany with 29 show homes and 13 sales offices. In addition, the company operates cooperations and sales companies in Austria, Poland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy and Switzerland. The company's production facilities are located in Birkenwerder / Brandenburg and Bad Saulgau / Baden-Württemberg.

The architectural designs range from wood construction with classic saddle , hipped or shed roof to the modern framework structure made of wood and glass. With Kampa Objekt- und Gewerbebau GmbH, the company realizes buildings for trade, commerce, administration and industry as well as for multi-storey residential construction based on the principle of sustainability and energy efficiency.

Projects

KfW Efficiency House 40 Plus

The KfW Efficiency House 40 Plus from Kampa is based on the KfW 40 Efficiency House energy standard and has been expanded to include the functions of energy generation through photovoltaics and energy storage. It thus exceeds the requirements of the Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV 2014 with changes in 2016) . It generates more energy than it consumes for heating, hot water, ventilation, household appliances and lighting. The energy storage system stores the generated electricity and keeps it ready for use. This means that approx. 80% of the electricity generated by the photovoltaic system can be used yourself (without energy storage it is approx. 50%). The own generation of electricity through renewable solar energy does not release any greenhouse gases (CO 2 etc.).

With this energy-plus concept based on an efficiency house 40, builders at Kampa have been receiving the highest possible funding under KfW funding since April 1, 2016.

The KfW Efficiency House 40 Plus Stadtvilla Potsdam received the Plus X Award 2016 as the best product in 2016/2017 in the categories of high quality, design, ease of use, functionality and ecology.

Building innovation center

Kampa built the building innovation center in Aalen-Waldhausen in 2014. The central building is a wooden building that serves as the Kampa K8 company headquarters , planning and development center and sampling world for clients . An information and training center for sustainable and ecological building is also located there. There is also a model house and a wooden educational trail on the site.

The building has eight floors and is made of wood, including the staircase and elevator shaft, with the exception of the basement. It reaches a height of approximately 30 meters. The solid wood construction consists of glued laminated timber or cross-laminated timber. The execution was based on the standard Efficiency House 40 ( PHPP Passive House Planning Package) with an insulated building envelope (U-value 0.102 W / (m 2 K)) and solar heat gains through glazing.

The energy-efficient operation is made possible by a solar ice heat exchanger system (see heat pump heating ), 685 m 3 of energy storage, thermal protection and multifunctional blankets for heating and cooling. The building fulfills the concept of sustainability with its 186 m 2 photovoltaic system (60 kWp = 60,000 kWh electricity), which generates more electricity than the building needs to use the primary energy. The primary energy requirement (drive energy for heating, ventilation and hot water) is approx. 46,000 kWh or 15.1 kWh / m 2 a. The additional 14,000 kWh generated are available as operating electricity (lighting, electrical appliances). Approx. 1,350 m 3 of wood were used for the construction of the building innovation center . As more carbon is stored in wood than is emitted in the form of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) when it is processed , the building has a positive ecological balance of approx. 825 tons of stored CO 2 .

This construction variant for a multi-storey commercial building up to the high-rise border was implemented for the first time in Germany with the building innovation center. The progressive Kampa K8 building with the energy-plus concept has received several awards, including recognition from the German Timber Construction Prize 2015, the Timber Construction Prize Baden-Württemberg 2015 and a placement among the top 10 of the GreenTec Award 2016.
