BMEcat, DATANORM, GAEB & Co. in use at Gebr. KEMPER GmbH Co. KG

Olpe, 26/03/2015: Gebr. KEMPER GmbH + Co. KG is an independent, standalone family-owned company rich in tradition, which since its founding in 1864 has grown to become a modern brand with high international esteem. KEMPER is one of the world's most respected specialists for precise and high-quality non-ferrous metal products and semi-finished metal products. KEMPER has 7 subsidiaries in Europe, North America and Asia. More than 800 employees work in the three business areas of building technology, casting technology and rolled products.
