Based in Baden-Baden, Germany, BIRCO has been a family enterprise for 3 generations. BIRCO was founded in 1927 as a coal and building materials supplier. As early as the 1950s, the first concrete drainage channels were produced for agricultural use. This triggered the idea of producing drainage channels for traffic areas. In 1965 BIRCO was the first German producer of a concrete channel covered with a mesh grating. The beginning of BIRCO’s specializing in solid and environment-friendly channel systems for surface drainage was thus marked.

The products are marketed through the company`s sales agencies in Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. In numerous other countries they are sold through partners and licensees. Frank Wagner, grandson of founder of the company, took over 100% of the company shares in 2000. In April 2002, Christian Merkel was appointed as the second managing director.
