THE HISTORY OF OUR COMPANY

It began in Leipzig in 1905

The history of our company began in 1905 in Liebertwolkwitz near Leipzig, founded by Reinhold Schüler as Reinhold Schüler KG Fabrik für Metallchemie. He brought the first industrially produced black oxidising salt onto the market under the brand name BRÜNOFIX. The BRÜNOFIX brand was born.

A few years after the end of the Second World War, Brünofix GmbH was founded in Nuremberg by Ilse Schüler as a sister company to Schüler KG to ensure supplies to companies in the western zone.

In 1952, the company moved to Rednitzhembach to the so-called ‘Amler-Haus’ in Rother Straße and in 1966 moved into a new production hall in Pruppacher Weg, the foundation stone for the current location in the south of Rednitzhembach.

Today active as a global player

The current product range covers more than 300 products around the processes of degreasing, pickling, black oxidising, phosphating, corrosion protection and colourants for stainless steel, brass, copper, nickel silver and die-cast zinc.

Our range of chemicals is complemented by fully automated surface finishing systems with specially developed control systems and the expertise we have accumulated over the decades from our own contract processing in the areas of black oxidation, phosphating and stainless steel colouring.

We owe our success as a system provider today to the suggestions and wishes of our customers worldwide and the commitment of our employees.
