Who we are and what we do

We make construction faster, safer and more efficient

The PERI brand was founded in 1969 by Artur and Christl Schwörer in a small town in Germany called Weissenhorn.

Since 1969, we have worked alongside our customers to create safe, innovative and optimal systems for their construction projects, no matter how complicated, challenging or unique they are.

Today, we employ 9,200 people and operate through more than 65 subsidiaries and over 160 logistics centres worldwide. Still owned by the founding family, we are proud of our heritage and independence, and remain committed to building long-term relationships with our customers.

PERI serves its customers worldwide with innovative system equipment and a comprehensive range of services related to formwork and scaffolding technology.

Through our products and services, our aim is to make construction more efficient, faster and safer.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

The issue of sustainability is at the heart of our business processes. Our product development is already focused on the best utilisation of materials and their most economical use.

Raw material selection and procurement is carried out in terms of ecological sustainability, with timber for example coming mainly from certified growing regions.

New technologies and efficient production processes ensure the best quality products with long service life which in turn has a positive effect on the consumption of natural resources.

Delivery and construction site logistics are also optimised regarding shipping volumes and transportation routes.

Strategically-positioned depots and facilities guarantee short delivery distances, and transport is also continuously optimised through an intelligent logistics network. We are also employing an ever-increasing range of sustainable energy sources for our facilities, including biomass and solar energy generation.  

From wood shavings power and heat are generated in the power plant which contributes a significant part of the used energy mix at the production facilities.
