History & Development
Founded in 1898 by Heinrich Winkelmann and Caspar Pannhoff as a tradesman’s business, today, four separate divisions operate in harmony under the umbrella of the Winkelmann Group. One of these divisions is Winkelmann Building + Industry (WBI), with Reflex Winkelmann as one of its key components. The Reflex brand has been an established market presence for decades. It celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2022 and has since become synonymous with high-quality product reliability. The company has an international infrastructure, with more than 25 of our own sales companies, which means our brand is currently visible in every important market across the globe.
But Reflex offers more than just products. Aside from extensive planning and consultancy services, commissioning by our own service technicians, and comprehensive after-sales support, we now also offer many digital services to help our customers plan, install and operate our products.
