The Bachl family business started in Germany in 1926 with the production of bricks. After the Second World War, the company grew steadily, from a traditional family business to an international group with more than 1,400 employees.
BACHL’s activities range from the production of building materials, insulating materials, foils, structural elements and slates, through design and construction to turnkey construction. BACHL’s products are the leading players on the German, Austrian, Czech and Hungarian building materials markets due to their excellent technical content and value for money.
Keeping in mind the values and spirit of the BACHL Group, BACHL Kft. started its operations in Hungary in 2002, first in Budapest, and one year later at its current location in Tószeg. In 2012, the Hungarian subsidiary reached a significant milestone, as it now offers a comprehensive solution for thermal insulation, complemented by the products of NIKECELL Kft.
Baumit is backed by 2 family-owned building materials groups with a history of more than 110 years, Schmid Ipari Holding and the Wietersdorfer Group.In 1988, the two former building materials producers entered into a cooperation agreement to market user-friendly, high-quality brand products under the Baumit brand throughout Austria. By cultivating these partnerships, the construction industry has made Baumit the number 1 ‘pioneer’ in Austria. Despite the unified market presence, both groups have remained independent to this day. Since the fall of the ‘Iron Curtain’ and Austria’s entry into the European Union, Baumit has virtually no borders. The enlargement of the EU accelerates the chances and opportunities for Baumit to become an even more secure company. Today, Baumit is represented in the market with distribution and production facilities in no fewer than 28 countries in Central, Southern and Eastern Europe.
