Ebener’s company history is growing
It all began 35 years ago with Ebener & Schneider GmbH: Ernst-Dieter Ebener and Lothar Scheider lay the foundations for Ebener’s high-end façades on a 1000m² production area with 5 other employees. 1994 Stefan Weber takes over the management. 2024 Ebener GmbH is given a new corporate identity. And in the intervening years? A lot has changed:
In 1997 there were two radical changes: A new administration building was built and the name was changed to Ebener GmbH Fassaden-Profiltechnik. The company is now managed by the partners Ernst-Dieter Ebener, Nicole Ebener and Stefan Weber.
In 2001, the number of employees has already grown to 50 and the production area to 3000m². The new technical pavilion is opened, where the technical office has been located ever since.
By 2002, the company had grown to 80 employees and a production area of 3700m². The technical pavilion needs to be extended by 130m² for the sales department.
In 2007, Ebener already employs 120 people and the production area of 4000m² has been fully utilised. The construction of a new reception and administration building begins.
2009 The competence centre is established in Lauingen/Danube, which provides planning, consulting and construction site support for southern Germany.
In 2012, a further technical pavilion is built, the technical office is generously extended and the production area now covers 6500m².
2014 Ebener celebrates its 25th anniversary: 500 guests attend the Westerwald business reception and an anniversary evening with business partners, customers, suppliers and friends to remember the beginnings and proudly present the company’s development.
In 2018, Stefan Weber acquires further shares and now holds 70% of Ebener GmbH.
In 2019, the 500m² office space in the technical office is extensively renovated – ergonomic workstations with full air conditioning and eye-friendly lighting are created.
In 2020, Ebener takes a big step towards sustainability: installation and commissioning of a 300kW photovoltaic system with theoretical 90% self-consumption. Since 2014, the company has been using 100% hydroelectric power to meet its non-self-generated electricity needs.
In 2021, the number of employees exceeds the 200 mark for the first time. Annual turnover amounts to €40 million.
In 2022, Stefan Weber acquires all shares and is now the sole shareholder. Ebener GmbH becomes part of Weber Development Holding GmbH as a wholly owned subsidiary.
On 1 October 2024, the secret is revealed: employees, business partners, friends and family see Ebener Fassaden’s new corporate design for the first time.
