History

Power of Reliability

KLEMM Bohrtechnik has been developing innovative drilling systems for specialised foundation engineering and similar fields of application since the 60s. The first hydraulic drifter for overburden drilling and the first double-head drilling heads with a tandem lift were among the early technology forerunners in our company history. Our robust, reliable drilling systems and equipment are based on many years of experience and expertise.
