GRECON WORLDWIDE FAGUS-GRECON Germany GRECON LTD. Great Britain GRECON AMÉRICA LATINA Brazil FAGUS-GRECON INC. USA GRECON GMBH CHINA China GRECON S.A.R.L. France In 1911, Carl Benscheidt founded Fagus GmbH for the production of shoe lasts and punching tools. His great-grandsons Ernst and Gerd Greten integrated the companies GreCon-Anlagenbau and GreCon-Elektronik. Numerous inventions have their origin in this merger, for example different lasts for the right and left foot, the measuring process to record the thickness, the surface characteristics or the weight by X-ray and the industrial spark extinguishing system. Today‘s Fagus-GreCon Greten GmbH & Co. KG is an owner managed family business in the fifth generation. Divided into the four business units “Fire Protection”, “Measuring Technology”, “Inspection Systems” and “Shoe Lasts & Moulds”, we deliver demanding solutions for different applications in different industries. Thanks to numerous inventions and the commitment of our worldwide more than 600 employees we were able to establish ourselves as international leading partner of our customers in every business unit. MEASURING TECHNOLOGY FOR YOUR PROCESS OPTIMISATION The UNESCO World Heritage Fagus Factory is the fifth business unit as cultural business in the industrial business. In 2011, the building complex at the Alfeld site was nominated “UNESCO World Heritage Fagus Factory”. The Fagus factory which was built in 1911 as first building of the architect and founder of the Bauhaus, Walter Gropius, is considered to be the origin of the modern era.
