Baier GmbH Individual solution competence – flexible and prompt
Baier begins there where standard ends. In doing so, Baier focuses on sustainability. In function, in production, in design. We see ourselves as a reliable partner for builders, architects and craftsmen who have high expectations of individuality and perfection. Light metal construction has been our core competence for over 40 years.
Continuous further developments and innovations are our trademarks. Together with you, we develop solutions for your ideas and implement them accurately. This is how we create individual building projects in the private and commercial sectors that set accents in the design. Without compromising on function, safety or comfort. Reliable and within the agreed budget. To ensure that your façade also creates moving moments.
Founded in 1973 by Paul Baier, the company Baier GmbH today stands for far-reaching fields of work with moving light and shade elements, i.e. products and services in the building trade.
Production programme
The production programme includes general light metal construction work as a craftsman’s service throughout Germany and the production of special products such as sliding windows, sliding shutters and aluminium door frames for this business sector as a manufacturer’s service.
Paul Baier defined the first milestone for the successful company in 1978 by patenting the first roof window roller shutter. In the meantime, Baier manufactures roof window roller shutters and accessories for almost all roof windows and series known on the market. Regionally, the Baier company also acts as a trade partner for roof window and loft ladder manufacturers.
It all started in Renchen-Ulm.
In the past years, we have grown continuously and expanded our product range. Baier has its roots in Baden, but our mentality has no national borders.
Meanwhile, we also produce in France and Poland and set standards for efficiency and quality at all our locations.
