History
Since 1990, the company founder Reinald Weiss laid the foundations for the success of the company. The success story began in a rented hall in the Crailsheim district of Onolzheim back then with R.WEISS Sondermaschinen GmbH which was manufacturer of functional elements, assemblies and special machines also including the fabrication of single parts. Shortly after the foundation of the company, the premises of this hall were no longer sufficient. In 1995, the company moved to the company headquarters in Crailsheim-Altenmünster after changing its name to R.WEISS Maschinenbau GmbH.
The formerly one-man business based in Crailsheim was rapidly growing by the companies R.WEISS Verpackungstechnik, R.WEISS Maschinenbau and R.WEISS Automation. Today, more than 300 employees are employed at the Crailsheim company headquarters. The Group has more than 1.000 employees worldwide.
