History

Karl Ebner founded the company in 1965 after looking back on many years as one of the leading engineers of the company LURGI. At an age when most people are preparing for their retirement, Karl Ebner has ventured into self-employment with enthusiasm and spiritual freshness, using his financial resources setting up a company that has revolutionized the spin bath treatment of the world’s viscose fiber industry from the start.

Through new and further developments of which many were patented, Karl Ebner has made the company the global market and technology leader in spin bath processing. With increasing success and a constantly growing number of qualified employees, Karl Ebner has expanded the company and extended the service in the field of thermal process engineering to other branches of industry.

The lean organization and the “Just one source” strategy, which makes a continuous quality control possible, were the key to success in establishing a global, satisfied customer base.

In 1974, Stefan Ebner joined the company after completing his engineering studies in process engineering and continues the tradition of designing energy-efficient plants with technical sophistication, ease of use and the highest quality requirements and offering them at reasonable prices. Constant development and the use of new technologies, as well as filling key positions in the company with competent employees, ensured sustainable success and growth.

Since 2014, the third generation is represented in the company by the entry of Sebastian Ebner in the ongoing business. A further advance towards the future in the context of the digitization and inclusion of the latest software technologies for greater flexibility, transparency and security in the planning and execution of projects ensures EBNER sustainably the position at the forefront of the evaporation and crystallization technology.
The basic principles of company Ebner – integrity, confidence and competence – play key roles for a growing client satisfaction.

Today, EBNER is one of the world’s leading suppliers of process technologies with a focus on evaporation and crystallization technology, and is as far as known the only supplier in the world that is able to manufacture the equipment that is used in the plants itself as well as to assemble it with its own personnel.
