«Our identity rests upon two strong pillars: Innovative Strength & Environmental Awareness.» A successful business needs a strong identity that grounds it. It shapes the day to day business as much as it helps design a positive future. Our identity rests upon two strong pillars: Innovative Strength & Environmental Awareness. Since the founding of BG-Graspointner in 1963, the aspiration to make technologically advanced and sophisticated products defined our daily actions. In the process, our innovative strength has also made something else possible: manufacture products that are not only highly...

Champion with family tradition. In 1961, Friedrich Graspointner sen. founded the concrete factory Graspointner as a family business in Oberwang. Since then, a lot has changed: the small-scale manufacturer of concrete goods for the local market has grown into a successful, globally active, medium size company with 250 employees. By now, we have founded 13 foreign subsidiaries and distribute our products to more than 30 countries. Many changes, one constant. One thing, however, has never changed: BG-Graspointner is and always will be a family business. Today numerous members of the founding family...

We work with the power of nature – and for its preservation.

With us environmental protection is not a hollow promise but active corporate culture. Our view of entrepreneurship is not to look at the profit alone. The company’s success and development will always be closely connected to its responsibility for the community – and for the environment. After all, what will the highest profit be worth if one cannot look into the mirror at the end of the day? For this reason, the sustainable use of our environment is a central element of our corporate culture and not a mere marketing promise: We rely on environmentally friendly production that is just as protective...

characterises innovative technology?

Maximum performance, maximum sustainability. Our products reflect what constitutes us as a business: Innovative strength and environmental awareness. But the one is inconceivable without the other: Our engineers develop advanced technologies that combine outstanding, technological characteristics with sustainability. Only our innovative strength allows for this combination – and you will find it in all product ranges form our company: Drainage Systems Railway Construction Traffic Systems Engineering ingenuity Made in Austria. Over the following pages, you can gain an idea of true engineering...

Bright prospects – regardless of the weather. Many drainage channels, one principle: perfect in every environment. What characterises a perfect drainage channel? It’s invisible. Because drainage channels only attract attention when they no longer function and the smallest rain shower turns the streets into the most dangerous slide. True experts stay in the background. Seen in this way, BG-drainage systems are the most inconspicuous of their kind. They are characterised by highest efficiency, robustness and sustainability in every environment – certified according to ISO 9001 as well as ENI 433...

Sustainable innovation. Triply good. Our drainage systems are available in three product groups: FILCOTEN® drainage system - innovative to the last fibre. • unique, innovative technology • very robust, functional and at the same time outstandingly light • extremely resource-efficient production by using 100 % green energy • 100% recyclable and environmentally compatible building material • very versatile: suitable for loads up to class E 600 EN 1433 • with three different rail edge materials and an extensive grating range Concrete drainage systems - strength in every environment. • suitable for...

On track to rise to every challenge. Railway construction that make efficiency possible. Railway construction at its most efficient: Our prefabricated parts system for railway construction regulating components makes it possible. They will ensure economic efficiency wherever cable conduits or cable-laying alongside railway tracks and in the vicinity of railway stations need executing. Simple as a puzzle, efficient as a cogwheel. BG cable troughs offer space for the full cable volume. They can be installed quickly and thus extremely cost-efficiently. The reason: Innovative production methods ensure...

The advantages at a glance: Time saving during the production of a cable conduit Costly labour of shuttering and concreting can be omitted reducing the duration of track closure to a minimum during operation. All static engineering requirements are met The reason is the development of a system in collaboration with the Austrian Federal Railway. Simple and safe laying around every obstacle Pre-set cutting lines allow an exact mitre cut of 22.5 or 15 degrees. Obstacles can thus be circumvented with an ideal radius. Fixed prices The modular system makes cost calculation easy and transparent. Gapless,...

For paths that are the goal – and for all other streets as well. Our traffic systems make streets simply safer. There’s more and more traffic on our streets today – and that does not remain without consequences. The road surface as well as the road shoulders and the guide post foundations are increasingly stressed. As a consequence, damages or even complete destructions frequently occur. The consequence: increasing costs for street maintenance and increasing safety risks for all road users. BG has developed various systems against that to make our streets safer and more economical.
