About Greiffenberger AG
Greiffenberger AG is a listed industrial holding company headquartered in Augsburg with a strategic focus on companies in the metal processing sector. Its operating core holding is J.N. Eberle & Cie. GmbH, a manufacturer of high-quality band saw blades, bimetal products and precision strip steel. The precision strip steel is produced as cold-rolled strip with tight dimensional tolerances, high flatness and straightness as well as high tensile and fatigue strength, and serves as a semi-finished product for quality products in various industrial sectors. In the bimetal area, the company longitudinally welds cost-efficient backing steel to a working edge made of wear-resistant high-speed steel; the special steels used achieve tempering hardnesses of up to 1,000 HV. Building on this, Eberle produces high-performance band saw blades with its own tooth geometries and carbide grades, supported by continuous materials research for difficult-to-machine materials. Strip steel is sold directly from Augsburg, for Asia via Eberle Korea Ltd. and for Eastern Europe via Eberle Polska Sp. z o.o.; band saws are sold through a worldwide distributor network and separate sales companies in Italy, France, Poland and the USA, complemented by the digital platform Saw Experts GmbH.
