Trust, Competence, Reliability
About us
We are an owner-managed family enterprise that, after the retirement from the daily business and the way too early death of the company founder Wolfgang Spielberger, is now lead in the second generation by his stepson Alexander Auerbach-Spielberger. Mr. Auerbach-Spielberger studied International Management in Germany and England. As an ISO-certified manufacturer of high-quality products for the printing industry we have set standards in Europe since 1989 and are said to be an acknowledged partner for machine manufacturers, suppliers and Fogra.
Owing to our long experience and the expertise of our dedicated employees we are able to rapidly develop custom-fit solutions for our clients in our own laboratory and to accompany trials directly on site. As a medium-sized company we put a strong emphasis on a sustainable relationship with our partners. We have accompanied many of our clients for several years and maintain an intensive personal contact.
As an in the second generation owner-managed family enterprise we are facing up to our responsibility for sustainable, innovative and ecological products and we are well aware of our social responsibility for our clients but also for our employees. In the future we will also be a down-to-earth and dependable partner with expertise and reliablility.
