Just like the history of our successful company,
which began over 50 years ago with Knauf's Gipsomat department.
In October 1972, the department developed into an independent company:
PFT Putz- und Fördertechnik GmbH
Today, PFT stands for expertise that has grown over several generations,
with deep roots in the industry.
Join us for an exciting year full of events.
We would like to thank you in advance for 50 very happy years and look forward to those yet to come.
