RIEGER

1955 -1960 With the support of his bassoon teacher, Georg Rieger, a skilled toolmaker, makes his first tools and machines for reed making bassoon - at first exclusively for his own needs. 

1961 -1973 With the first handmade gouging and profiling machines for bassoon Mr. Rieger starts a small manufacture in a shed by his house. 

Due to a growing production a first extension of the workshop is necessary. 

1974-1989 Georg Rieger risks definitely the step into independence and builds yet another extension in order to store the machines and materials accordingly. 

1985 Johann Rieger, Georg Rieger’s son, joins the company as a mechanical engineering master in order to cope with the growing demand of tools, machines and canes. 

1990 The company Georg Rieger is turned into Georg Rieger GmbH. 

2000 The company is relocated in the industrial zone Bad Rotenfels. With the help of meanwhile four permanent employees and two temporary workers the company sells tools and machines worldwide. All our products are developed with a special focus on quality, longevity and functionality.
