HEBGO AG was founded in 1938 as a sole proprietorship by Heinrich Briner-Gugger in Olten, Switzerland. The company name is derived from the founder's name and the name of the town. Initially, the name was used for fittings from the building locksmith's shop, but soon the company was also called this. The company has expanded its portfolio considerably and today HEBGO produces seals, brackets and sheet metal products. The modern machines punch over 300 tonnes of sheet metal for Hebgo products, but can also realise special designs.
