A family business since the beginning

Our story

Hans Bernstein founded the company "BERNSTEIN Spezialfabrik für Schaltkontakte" in 1947 at the foot of the Kaiser Wilhelm monument in Porta Westfalica. Today, the East-Westphalian BERNSTEIN AG employs more than 600 people in 10 countries and, as an internationally active family business, is already managed in the 3rd generation by Nicole and Achim Bernstein, the grandchildren of the founder.
