ABOUT THE
BAUER MASSSTABFABRIK

A Family Business in the third Generation

1948 Josef Bauer founded the first and so far only scale factory in Bavaria. Responsible treatment of people and the environment continues to be very important to us, which is why we source our raw materials and means of production primarily from domestic companies.
Our products are not only high-quality designed and implemented, but are also made exclusively with water-based paints and varnishes.
Under the motto “Made in Germany” we support local forestry and deliberately do not relocate our own production to low-wage countries. Over the years, more than 5,000 employees have joined our team. Every year we have 10, 20, 30 and even 40 years company anniversaries!

In year 1963 son Franz Josef Bauer joined the company.

2012 established Philipp-M. Bauer, who is now the third generation of the scale brand, the company slogan “Color your business” and literally brings more color into the world of measuring tools. The individual design and implementation of standards is a focus of BAUMA – we fulfill almost every wish! Image prints on multicolored painted scales are ideal as branding for a company. There are no limits to the imagination. With currently 10 different wood models from 8 series, we have the largest and most comprehensive scale range in the industry. Unusual ideas on high-quality measuring tools – in our eyes an unbeatable combination.

With currently 10 different wood models and 5 plastic models from 8 series, we have the largest and most comprehensive scale offer in the industry!

Our original angle fitting (model B400) proves itself millions of times a year and has already been sold over 80 million times. So about as often as an iPhone from Apple or a Playstation!
