Everything started in 1984 as a one-man business in a garage in a small village called Haslach, Upper Bavaria, Germany. The first order included the making of models for home appliance. They were followed by different design and function models, such as cross-country ski bindings, a film camera and even a milling machine. With the first casting and mould patterns for a German car manufacturer, the headstone for a sustainable relation with the automotive industry was set.

Under the direction of Blasius Gerg and his wife Maria, the company has grown over the last decades, expanded and developed a diverse range of competence centers.

Until today, the company Modell- und Formenbau Blasius Gerg GmbH is still a family-run business. In the meantime the second generation is already involved in the firm.

What once used to be the founder‘s imagination and his creative talent on a small-scale has transformed into the big picture with innovation-friendly atmosphere and positive culture of today’s company group.

Gerg – the History

Today, besides Maria and Blasius Gerg, Josef Kagermeier is also part of the management. Despite the technical and operative distinction in different departments, the hierarchies are still flat and the ways kept short. Thanks to the campus-style architecture of the production and development buildings, uncomplicated exchange of information and goods within the company takes place easily. The company´s philosophy of a face-to-face management is part of the culture on all levels.

For more than 35 years we have been a leading supplier of innovative solutions for the global automotive and aviation industry. We are a successful and expanding business in the field of modelling, composite applications and prototyping. Our clients include well-known carmakers, motorsport teams of the Formula 1, DTM or Formula E as well as customers of the aviation and aerospace sector.

Learning is part of the professional self-concept of every employee; this is the environment an apprenticeship with us takes place in. Besides the fundamental handcraft and the necessary factual knowledge, our trainees learn how to deal with new challenges – always supported by instructors and colleagues. Our underlying attitude is to strive for perfection and hence achieve the best possible result. Of course, on this way mistakes are made and from these mistakes you learn. To be allowed to make mistakes also means the freedom to try something new. This is how we understand and define positive culture at our company Modell- und Formenbau Blasius Gerg GmbH.
