Dieffenbacher takes over B. Maier Zerkleinerungstechnik GmbH in Bielefeld, Germany
Beginning of September 2009 Dieffenbacher acquired 100% of the shares of B. Maier Zerkleinerungstechnik GmbH. Furthermore agreements were signed that B. Maier Zerkleinerungstechnik GmbH takes over the know-how and the patents of B. Maier GmbH Maschinenfabrik as well as of AB Anlagenbau GmbH for the complete product range of size reduction technology.
In the last years, Maier has gained an excellent reputation in the sector of chip and particle preparation systems and therefore the company perfectly complements the Dieffenbacher product portfolio.
Within the Dieffenbacher Group Maier will be responsible for the engineering of chip preparation systems including conveying technique, chipper, chip bunker, flaking of the chips and refining of particles for surface furnish. Dieffenbacher plays on the still good financial situation to further increase the competence of the Group as a supplier of complete production lines for the wood-based panel industry. With this acquisition, Dieffenbacher is in a position to provide all core components of a complete production line from its integrated group members.
B. Maier Zerkleinerungstechnik GmbH has also gained experience in the design and sale of pellet plants which will perfectly fit the Dieffenbacher strategy as a supplier of complete pellet production lines.
