About us
Weiss GmbH was founded in 1993 by Joachim Weiss in Eberhardzell and today operates as a master metalworking business (Schlosserei) at a single site in Bad Wurzach-Unterschwarzach. With around 25 employees, the company processes approximately 1,200 tonnes of steel per year. Its service range extends from laser cutting (fiber laser, 3D tube laser) and waterjet and plasma cutting to bending technology, CNC machining (drilling, milling, turning) and welding, including an 8-axis robotic welding system. This is complemented by surface technology such as shot blasting, powder coating and hot-dip galvanizing, as well as design, assembly and contract work. Key focuses are steel construction, stairs, balconies and railings made of steel and stainless steel, steel-glass canopies, component manufacturing for mechanical engineering, custom fabrication, and its own products in the fields of agricultural equipment and scissor lift platforms (WhitePowerBull). Customers include industry, trade, agriculture, municipalities and private customers in the Upper Swabia region and beyond.
