History

On March 21, 1947, Fridolin and Ingeborg Liegl , obeying the requirements of the time, founded a demolition and material recycling business .

Material recovery and the prevention of uncontrolled collapse of existing war ruins were the premises at that time.

Manual work was the daily bread of our employees - 1200 bricks a day removed, cleaned and loaded by hand, were a rather average daily output of an experienced demolition worker.

Huge order volumes, caused by the economic miracle, moved the mechanical demolition more and more to the fore for time and cost reasons. Applied technology and new ideas have become our trademarks.

We recover, secure and dispose of the pollutants from an old substation; the encompassing water protection area and drinking water reservoir of the metropolis of Munich remains untouched

Today demolition is constant technical progress and we help shape it
