Wire drawing and ropery under one roof

TRADITION. INNOVATION. VISION. SINCE 1889.

Since 1889, our continuous pursuit of progress and the highest quality standards has set the benchmarks that are reflected in our products and services. Johannes and Wilhelm VORNBÄUMEN, the founders of the company, gave utmost priority to developing the company and improving production and technology right from the beginning. Thus, in 1906 they founded their own wire drawing mill to go with the ropery. This was the foundation stone for increased independence from the raw material suppliers, and the term “quality” was thus redefined. Still today we feel obligated to measure up to these standards and to the founders’ researching and pioneering spirit. In the meantime, 10,000 tonnes of steel per year are processed in our plants in Bad Iburg and Allstedt with the most modern production technology. In addition to our main products – wires and steel ropes – today we also produce Bowden spirals, push-pull spirals, and plastic tubing for the automotive industry and others. All products are developed and manufactured with state-of-the-art technology. Wire and steel ropes are used throughout the world. We will contribute to this now and in the future.

VORNBÄUMEN steel ropes – a success story

In the 1980s, a significant expansion was planned for the location in Bad Iburg, and now over 50,000 m² of production space are available to the company. A large hall for storage, confection and office space was completed in 2022. In the middle of the 1990s, we expanded our portfolio with the production location in Allstedt. Today special products for the automotive and bicycle industries are produced
there.

Thanks to our close cooperation with our customers and our ability to modify production, we are able to
work together with you to establish the conditions for optimal market positioning. Whether through our years of experience in standard wire ropes or our will to innovate in the area of special applications. We will find a solution to your problem.

TRADITION. VISION. INNOVATION.
