Company History

The company was founded in 1965, at which time the job of a ‘Flaschner’ was very much similar to the job of a plumber. At that time, patching small household items such as pans and watering cans, as well as the installing of pipes of different kinds were all a part of the job.
Company founder Manfred Reinhardt determined to set out for himself after his father didn’t return from the war. He earned his Master’s status in Tinning in 1965 and in Plumbing and Gas Installation in 1967.
The very first workshop was at that time in the family barn.
After a shaky beginner’s start, the company never lacked business.
After running the company for 34 years, Manfred Reinhardt handed over the reigns on January 1st 1999 to his son Volker, who had also earned his master status in the same areas as his dad by that time.
Another company milestone was the acquisition of the current 2.500 m² facility in 2006. After a complete renovation and modernization, the facility provides an ideal work environment for employees and clients alike.
