Tradition

GIMA maintains a long tradition in the production of ceramic building materials. With our quality products, we are not just an important supplier to this region, we also convince our customers beyond the regional border with our bespoke solutions and with our innovative approach.

Right from Day One, the GIMA brickworks have been guided by a sense of tradition and an entrepreneurial grasp of the bigger picture. In 1903, Therese Girnghuber, the great grandmother of the current proprietor Claus Girnghuber, acquired the brickworks. Ever since then, GIMA has been family-owned.

Environment

We want to manufacture long-lasting products from natural raw materials and with resource-saving production. We therefore always strive to operate sustainably with the most modern technology and to achieve maximum efficiency. This applies not only to the operation of our systems, but also to the energy required for it.

Renewable energies

Our goal is to produce up to 66% of our electricity requirement independently in the near future with the help of solar and wind energy. Thanks to a gas mixing plant, it will also be possible for us to use locally produced biogas or self-generated hydrogen to make our brick products in future. However, it’s not only improving our processes that plays an important role for the future of construction, but also expanding our product range. Take a look at the numerous aspects below that are relevant in the context of sustainability in our production operations.
"We like to be the first to do things, and we are committed to giving our customers precisely what they wish for. My father laid the groundwork for this customer-oriented production of bespoke solutions back in the late Fifties. Until then, the company was a normal brickworks that primarily served its local region. Right up to the present day, this early willingness to innovate still runs like a golden thread through the success story of this company."
