COMPANY PAGE

"Tradition remains – innovation comes" In 1919 Karl Merz took the step to become self-employed with the Karl Merz Maschinenfabrik in the field of mechanical bulk solids processing. Thirty years later, his son Karl Heinrich Merz took over the company, expanded it and ran it until 1990. Since then, the company has been successfully managed by the third generation of Karlheinz Merz until 2019. During his time, the name was changed from Karl Merz Maschinenfabrik to Merz Aufbereitungstechnik, since the company had established itself as a sought-after specialist in the mechanical processing of bulk materials. Karlheinz Merz passed away unexpectedly on the company`s 100th birthday last year and his wife Marianne Kramer-Merz took over the company as managing director. To date, the Merz family has led the company through all ups and downs for an entire century with an excellent team of employees – a remarkable achievement. Our long history continues in 2020 under the talented leadership and successorship of Falko
