Company
From Weikersdorf to world market leader
Founded in 1986, IAG Industrie Automatisierungsgesellschaft m.b.H. is presently in the sole ownership of two families. Very early on, the founders Olaf Pokorny and Ernst Brunner combined their passion for filling the highest customer requirements with a noteworthy competence for finding solutions. These properties have always helped IAG to maintain a lead in matters of technology – first on the domestic and subsequently on the international market. That was how the company was to become the world market leader in this market – through the manufacture of fully automatic and tailor-made special solutions for the friction lining industry. With its entry into test cell technology and water and snow system technology in 2007, IAG continued along its dynamic path within this niche market.
Our success is based on people. With around 100 employees on one site, we maintain flat hierarchies, an economical administration and rapid decision-making. These are three decisive reasons that gives us the flexibility we need to implement customer-specific requirements. Long-term and flourishing relationships with our customers, suppliers and employees enable us to create smoothly flowing procedures. Quality and reliability are our compass in all areas of the business along the entire value chain. For over 30 years
