Reifenhäuser - The Extrusioneers®


The Troisdorf, Germany headquarters of the company

New corporate structure for Reifenhäuser

The course for an optimal positioning of the tradition-rich family company in the globalized marketplaces was set in 2004 with the transformation into a family holding company. This step allowed its customers to benefit from direct dialogue, an absolutely market- and product-oriented research and development and from the comprehensive RQS quality service.

The next step was taken in mid-2005 when the
GS / synthetic fibre (spunbond) division was transferred into Reifenhäuser REICOFIL GmbH & Co. KG. Then, on July 1, 2006, the activities of all film divisions were pooled in the newly established Reifenhäuser EXTRUSION GmbH & Co. KG. It comprises the former blown film, thermoforming sheet, cast film / laminating and component product areas as well as customer service and central production.

As a further logical step, Worms-based Kiefel, a leading company in the blown film area, was taken over and incorporated into the holding structure in August 2009. Parallel to this, the blown film activities of Reifenhäuser EXTRUSION were pooled in the new subsidiary Reifenhäuser KIEFEL Extrusion. Thus, the Reifenhäuser Extrusioneers have clearly set the course to growth and leadership also in this market segment.

The already traditional leading role of Reifenhäuser Maschinenfabrik within the group of companies has now been institutionalized. Reifenhäuser GmbH & Co. KG headed by Bernd, Klaus and Ulrich Reifenhäuser, has taken over the strategic governance and alignment of the complete group of companies.

Within this structure the holding company is able to support the developments of the individual companies in the most effective way and use the synergies existing within the group to the maximum benefit of its customers.

"The Extrusioneers" will consistently follow the path now taken and are optimistically looking ahead to the challenges of the future.

Reifenhäuser EXTRUSION GmbH & Co. KG

With the beginning of the fiscal year 2006/2007 on July 1, 2006, the activities of all film divisions were pooled in the newly established Reifenhäuser EXTRUSION GmbH & Co. KG. It comprises the former product areas blown film, thermoforming sheet, cast film/laminating, WPC solutions and components as well as customer service and central production.


With the divestment of the blown film activities into Reifenhäuser KIEFEL Extrusion, the remaining product divisions are able now to concentrate on strategies conforming to the specific market requirements and on direct relationship with customers, prerequisites that allow rapid and direct response to changes in the respective marketplaces.

Reifenhäuser REICOFIL GmbH & Co. KG

Since July 1st, 2005 Reifenhäuser REICOFIL GmbH & Co. KG is an independent company within the Reifenhäuser Group.
In view of the development into the market leader in nonwoven line construction, it was deemed appropriate to adapt the organisation and structure of the synthetic fibre line division to the future requirements of the market. Therefore, the synthetic fibre line production area was spun-off from Reifenhäuser GmbH & Co. KG Maschinenfabrik on July 1, 2005 and the independent Reifenhäuser REICOFIL GmbH & Co. KG was established. The domicile of the company remains Troisdorf. Management was taken over by Dr.-Ing. Bernd Kunze and Dipl. Kfm. Ulrich Reifenhäuser.

Polyrema specialises in buying and selling used plastics processing machines. This encompasses individual components, such as extruders, dies, winders, etc., and complete lines.
