Balingen - Papenburg, February 2012: The Brombach + Gess GmbH & Co. KG, recently could achieve one of the most prestigious awards in the international shipbuilding industry. After the awards for the years 2006 and 2010, the company got the award again in 2011 as a "Partner of the Year" of Meyer Werft GmbH.

2007 was the first award ceremony of Meyer Werft GmbH, "Partner of the Year 2006", Brombach + Gess were already successful here and won the award. This award is based on the supplier rating that was introduced in 2005 within the framework of the shipyard's supplier management.

Since the Meyer Werft GmbH is one of the world's largest shipyards for the construction of cruise ships, this award has grown into an international hallmark of excellence of the cruise ship industry. There are no more questions – a "Partner of the Year", awarded by Meyer Werft, is working in the absolut upper league. 2010, it worked again. With that, Brombach + Gess consolidate its leading position among the suppliers. Remarkable - throughout the duration of the price, only one company has been awarded twice. Brombach + Gess is a rather small supplier among the more than 2,000 competitors.

Early February it works again: Brombach Gess was honored as "Partner of the Year 2011" and is the only supplier who could win this award 3 times now.

Klebetechnik
Bonding technology
Bonding technology is used to directly bond glass to the structure of the ship, doing away with window frames. Tolerances become balanced by using adhesive of various strengths. A large advantage of the used adhesive (PU) is the remainding elasticity. This protects the glass against loads by the ship`s movements.
Montage
Assembly
Our assemblers are certified "European Adhesive Bonders" and have many years of experience in glass bonding in the marine sector.
