About us
As the company has done in the past, Scheuch's future will focus on the challenges of specific customer solutions and standardised products, as well as those presented by both regional and international markets.
We are seeing a growing trend towards consolidation among customers and stronger pressure from competition. This has led to projects being carried out in countries that are increasingly further afield and our company becoming more and more international.
At the same time, however, Scheuch wants to keep its business at a stable size in the Innviertel region. And it not only applies this philosophy to its Aurolzmünster headquarters, but also carries it through to the entire German-speaking region; the company's traditional home market that it has served for 50 years now.
'Thanks to its 50 years of experience, in-depth expertise in technology matters and outstanding skills when it comes to consultation and problem-solving, Scheuch is in an ideal position to rise to the challenges that international customers will bring in the future', says DI Stefan Scheuch, Managing Director of Scheuch GmbH.
Philosophy
When Alois Scheuch founded this company more than 45 years ago, he did so with a commitment to making high levels of customer satisfaction the company’s most important goal.
Today, as then, this adopted principle not only remains valid, it continues to guide our thoughts and actions as we engage on many levels in the fields of ventilation and environmental technology, so that together we can make a valuable contribution to the protection of the global climate.
The interests of our customers are thereby the focal point of all our considerations as we strive to find the best technical and economic solutions to meet their needs. We do this so that every customer can make long-term investments knowing that the underlying technological concept will stand the test of time, that equipment can be retrofitted or converted as technological advances are made, and that cost reductions can be achieved while simultaneously increasing performance and safety levels.
The result has been close and responsible working relationships culminating in long-term partnerships characterized by our joint efforts to achieve again and again a new level of technical and economic optimization.
This lasting effect benefits both our customers and ourselves, creating a win-win situation for both sides in what we call a living win-win partnership.
