Being successful requires two things: Clear goals and the burning desire to achieve them.
Herbert Welser and Ulrich Benser, as the founders of the mbw group, had the goal and the desire to offer customers from the automotive, fittings and construction industry perfect and needs-based surface coating of metals of all kinds. In 1987, they founded mbw - metallveredelung with great determination and in-depth knowledge.
Today, the mbw group is one of the largest contract coating companies in Germany and, thanks to its many years of experience, can offer its customers quality surfaces.
