Why doesn't a high tower topple? How do you build a bridge so that it doesn't collapse? And how does a ropeway actually work? Children are fascinated by technical aspects. In the "KiTec - Kids Discover Technology" project, youngsters can satisfy their curiosity by tinkering and constructing in an age-appropriate way. An exciting journey begins! b&m accompanies the sixth graders of the Georg-Christoph-Lichtenberg-Schule (GCLS) in Ober-Ramstadt as an educational partner.

What would our everyday working life be without valuable connections? We need helpful business contacts, but also reliable connection technology solutions that give components a plus in safety and sustainability. b&m brings both together on July 6 (Thursday): Join the “FESTIVAL OF CONNECTIONS” at our company headquarters in Ober-Ramstadt! Here, regional players from different branches of the manufacturing industry will exchange ideas on current challenges and innovations.
According to experts, it takes around 80 mature beech trees to compensate one ton of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air every year. This calculation illustrates the benefit to nature that an emission saving of 219 tons of CO2 per year can achieve; such an achievement – equivalent to the capacity of 17,520 beech trees – has been accomplished by b&m in 2022. After all, in 2022 we were able to reduce the CCF (Company Carbon Footprint) substantially by 38 percent as compared to the previous year.
When Julia Klinkenberg received her high-school diploma (“Abitur”), she had several goals. To see the world, to get involved, to make a difference. The way to get there? A jungle of possibilities. The guardrails were set by an empty vacation fund and a job interview at the industrial supplier baier & michels, or b&m for short, in Rohrbach (Ober-Ramstadt).
The hybrid construction method is both a solution and a challenge: The different materials must be joined together in a manner that is not only reliable but also process-safe. b&m scores with cold-formed solutions beyond the conventional paths. The latest episode of the “Maschinenraum” podcast by Dennis Rathmann deals with the b&m-specific approach (#266). The guests are our Sales expert Jana Tischler and Eugen Kraus, Head of Sales Engineering.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has traditionally been a high priority for us. Therefore, the b&m Group has had its sustainability management certified by EcoVadis on a voluntary basis – and was awarded a “silver medal” right away as recognition for the performance achieved. EcoVadis is an assessment platform for evaluating sustainability along the entire supply chain.
Exciting customer projects and trade fair appearances, plus the “Sommerfest” to celebrate our 90th anniversary: Last year we already did everything but take it easy. In 2023, b&m is to continue its successful course – and will even go one better.
Please note, b&m Germany is closed for winter break from Friday 23rd December. Our first working day is Monday, 02nd January 2023. We wish all our employees and business partners as well as their families a very happy and peaceful festive period.

baier & michels (b&m) supports industrial companies in manufacturing high-quality products.
...we gladly report in this NewsBlog. Especially when it comes to our first trade show appearance at the legendary SEMA Show in the metropolis of Nevada.
baier & michels (b&m) helps representatives of the plastics industry to improve products and eco-balance, while making savings in manufacturing costs.
One of the greatest challenges of multi-material construction is to join the various materials in a solid and process-safe manner.
The technical and economic challenges facing the plastics and rubber industry are constantly growing. Groundbreaking developments in terms of quality, material mix and cost efficiency will be on display at K 2022 in Düsseldorf (Oct. 19-26).
Those producing construction machinery and vehicles, as well as mining equipment, always also need that extra, which not only provides support for many components at their core, but also a plus in sustainability and safety: high-quality fastening technology and sealing systems.
As a partner, we would like to congratulate the TU Darmstadt Racing Team (DART): The 45 or so students can look back on an eventful 2022 season of the international design competition "Formula Student".
How great that the principle of direct screwing exists. It enables cost advantages by eliminating the need for thread cutting.
Fastener technology and sealing systems hold enormous potential – provided they are used intelligently. What is possible for OEMs and suppliers?
The Oldtimer-Festival in Schwetzingen brings together the world's most beautiful classic cars. Among them the Röhr 8 type RA from Ober-Ramstadt – presented by b&m.

The nationwide action day for career orientation, which promotes the idea of a career and study choice free of role stereotypes took place on April 28, 2022.
At the beginning of this year, we, as b&m trainees, were commissioned by Mr. Federolf to build insect hotels. We began by agreeing on a construction concept and then drew up a material plan, which we later needed for our visit to the DIY store.
When it comes to cold extrusion parts, there are amateurs, advanced users and professionals – and there is Eugen Kraus. A conversation with someone who sees himself as a „positive lunatic“ when it comes to fasteners and seals, and who leads our Sales Engineering team.
We say THANK YOU! It has impressed and inspired us, this enormous commitment in the past months: We at baier & michels would like to thank all the teachers at the Albert Einstein School in Groß-Bieberau with a breakfast.
This spring, baier & michels celebrates its 90th birthday. Founded in 1932 in Frankfurt am Main, grown up in Ober-Ramstadt, present on three continents in 2022: Our journey from a small screw dealer to a pioneer in innovative fastening and sealing technology has been an extremely exciting and educative tour de force.
As a quality planner at b&m, Marcel Heitz deals with matching performance to requirements. His target groups are customers, colleagues and suppliers.
The return of the classic in-person trade fair continues to take shape. We will be present at several events as exhibitors - with our experts, brand new technical solutions and great desire to exchange ideas with visitors.
"Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time, and companies are playing an important pioneering role in this," says Jörg Pohl, Managing Director at baier & michels (b&m), adding: "Running a business sustainably is becoming a social obligation that our parent company, the Würth Group, is meeting with ambitious targets. We at b&m support this path and at the same time make our contribution, which includes ecological approaches towards electricity consumption."
Buying high-quality connections, closures and seals is one thing. It is another thing to understand the products and integrate them into your own applications. Because only then do the small parts unfold their great effect by making life easier for our customers - technically and economically.
After a few years of sharing space with our colleagues from Würth Industry Services, b&m Spain finally has its own office!
A picture and its story: Maxim Ort gives us an insight into baier & michels‘ application laboratory.
A new business year means: new events, new opportunities, new insights. With all our hearts, we wish you above all health, joy and success.
The international trade fair would have launched the year’s activities for the die-casting industry: now, the event that was originally scheduled for 18-20 January 2022 has been postponed due to further dynamic upswing in Covid-19 infections – it will be held from 8 to 10 June 2022.
Of course, nowadays there are countless digital platforms and opportunities to present yourself as a service provider and product supplier. But the desire for the trade fair experience is unbroken, as the autumn 2021 season proves. Why are in-person trade fairs still so important, especially in the manufacturing sector?
Our fastener technology provides solutions in technology and inspiration in art. This is proven by the first collaboration with students of the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach am Main.
In coolant and lubrication circuits, the interaction between quality, cost-efficiency and eco-balance can be noticeably improved – with fastener technology by baier & michels. Developers Eugen Kraus and Michael Lendle talk about the art of simplicity and a unique closing and sealing system: the b&m-KL PLUG®.
You missed the chance to meet b&m at a trade fair? Or you want to learn more about the challenges and potentials from the world of innovative connections, closures and seals?
Did you feel the same way? The joy of seeing each other again in 2021 after the pandemic break was enormous: IAA Mobility in Munich, Fakuma in Friedrichshafen, Automotive Hungary in Budapest. Finally experiencing trade fairs again!
