History
OKW cases have been developed and manufactured in Buchen since 1951 - four years after the firm's foundation by Dr. Herbert Schneider. The business started with the manufacture of tuning knobs and radio cases. Then the first standard case for the electrical industry joined in, the so-called flat-pack case. A special asset of OKW are modifications according to customers' requirements, like drilling, milling, printing, lacquering etc. Guided by the slogan "To Each His Own Housing", the number of types and versions offered had risen to several hundreds by 1984. This was a good reason to start distributing these standard cases through the Odenwälder Kunststoffwerke Gehäusesysteme which was from now on legally independent. Today, the export share of the total
turnover amounts to more than 50% of cases. Due to the foundation of
independent branches and to the cooperation with own reliable and
competent sales partners in France,
United Kingdom,
U.S.A., Switzerland,
Czech. Republic, Korea and
Brazil, immediate service and attention
can be safeguarded where it is necessary.
