History

The family-owned company has a 40-year history rooted in a small engineering company specializing in the design of small machines and tools, founded by Karl-Heinz Krah in 1968 in Westerwald. Over time, the company has developed from a small workshop and "one man show" to a worldwide manufacturer of specialized machines in pipe production plants for big diameters of non pressure plastic pipes, as well as plastic pressure pipes. The company is still family-managed, currently by Alexander Krah, the youngest son of Karl-Heinz Krah. The company has production facilities in Spain, Croatia, Germany, Argentina, USA, Kuwait, Oman and Mexico. In 2007 an Arab investor injected money in cash for a 50% share in the company. The remaining shares are held equally by Karl-Heinz Krah and Alexander Krah. In 2008 the Krah pipe manufacturer (Krah Pipe Systems) in Greenwood/USA set up the world's first plant for large diameter helical extrusion pipes, ranging up to for municipal water.
