We’re shaping history. Since 1911.
Franz Bettermann founded a small company for brass goods, shoe hooks and eyelets in 1911. This laid the foundation for the OBO Bettermann Group. Read about the milestones that have shaped our history.

State-of-the-art production facilities, efficient processes: OBO product competence
Our international production companies are marked by a high level of competence in all production processes and state-of-the-art equipment. A very high level of vertical integration with our own metal fabrication, surface finishing, and plastics and electronics production makes us independent of suppliers in many areas. This means we not only have a high level of quality control, but also rapid local availability, as well as short – and therefore sustainable – transportation routes. We’re able to respond quickly and flexibly with special solutions for customer requests and project requirements.
