The BESSEY Group has maintained its independence as a family-owned company since 1889. This allows strategy and organisation to be coordinated in a direct and clear manner. For the workforce and all stakeholders, this means consistency and preservation of values – all decisions are sustainable and geared towards long-term success. The current shareholders are descendants of company founder Max Bessey. Today, BESSEY sees itself as a family in which the shareholders, management and workforce act as a team. This independent approach still defines BESSEY today and secures the company’s unique market position.

“To stop improving is to stop being good.“ The motto of company founder Max Bessey remains true today, as it will in the future, and is the guiding principle to everything that the company does.

The Neverending Road to Success

Since Eugen Mayer overtook the reins of the company in 1926, the strength of BESSEY innovation has been underlined by the granting of numerous patents. In 1979, with the takeover of Diener Werkzeugfabrik GmbH, a company rich in tradition, BESSEY established its cutting technology unit with the already popular Erdi snips.

In 2004 BESSEY & Sohn was spun into BESSEY Tool, handling the clamping and cutting technology areas, and BESSEY Präzisionsstahl, a leading German producer-independent and industry-independent supplier of high-quality bright and stainless steels. This unique positioning of BESSEY as a producer of tools and precision steels ensures significant advantages in terms of quality. It allows BESSEY Tool to procure its rails and spindles directly from the in-house drawing plant, giving it precise knowledge of the steel quality that is going into particularly components which are subjected to particularly high stresses. This is because bright steels are produced and tested at BESSEY Precision Steel with consistently high quality and the utmost precision, in cutting-edge facilities.
