The early days: founding of the company and first steps
Heinrich Herchenbach founds the company in Troisdorf, near Cologne. In the first few decades, the company focuses on selling wooden marquees and on their short-term rental. It is only when his son joins the business in the 1950s that industrial buildings using steel-pipe constructions and aluminium are also rented and sold. - 1989
The focus: warehouses for industrial customers
The founder’s grandson, Jürgen Herchenbach, joins the company. As a mechanical engineering graduate, he has previously worked in plant construction. Herchenbach has now withdrawn completely from the marquee segment to focus on selling aluminium warehouses for longer-term use in the industrial sector.

The foundations: developing the company’s own aluminium profiles
Jürgen Herchenbach’s wife, Anna Herchenbach, joins the company. She was previously a sales manager and controller at an aluminium press plant in Bonn and brings extensive knowledge of the material aluminium with her. The couple advances with the development of the company’s own aluminium profiles and the associated statics, receiving support from a renowned professor at the University of Hamburg in Harburg in the process. - 2005
The breakthrough: the Heba-Fix® modular statics system
From 2005, the company manufactures the patented Heba-Fix® buildings, which it has developed itself, and sells and rents them. All statics relating to snow and wind loads are adapted to the legal changes to the Euro code, making Heba-Fix® buildings suitable for use as permanent structures in accordance with DIN EN 1991. The company sees an increase in profit and turnover by producing its own buildings. - 2008
A new start: sale of the company and global economic crisis
Richard Sattler and his son Dr Stefan Sattler buy the company. In the global economic crisis of 2009, the business model that Jürgen Herchenbach has established proves to be crisis-proof. Turnover can be maintained. Due to the economic situation, the number of rental contracts increases.
Herchenbach completes its first key account project for Roche in Mannheim and, two years later, its first projects abroad for the world’s largest brewery, ABInBev.

Digitalisation: change of management and restructuring
The next generation of entrepreneurs, in the persons of Till Bossert, Tobias Raeber and Nektarios Apostologlou, takes over management and ownership of the company. Later Christian Höhne and Ian Frankel join them. In a time of rapid change, a state-of-the-art ERP system is introduced, the process and structural organisation is professionalized, and digitalisation is accelerated. Sales are decentralised and, at the same time, the first sales teams for the FR and UK markets as well as a service department are set up.

Growth: internationalisation and Top Innovator
The company continues to expand its markets in FR and UK. Important support departments such as engineering, marketing and site management/QM are restructured and professionalised. Further improvements to process organisation and material flow result in unprecedented scalability, which acts as a foundation for further growth. In 2018 and 2019, the company receives the Top 100 Innovator award. The company’s exceptional speed of change and innovative strength as well as its creation of a best-in-class process for smooth, easy completion of warehouse projects are singled out for praise.
