From toolmaking to the world market leader in ladder joints. Then radiator production and today CLAX. Our history of the entrepreneur family Rauschenberger goes back to the year 1924. Numerous innovative technical new developments and patents lead again and again to a special unique selling point in the respective markets and thus to a successful family business career.
CLAX was created in 1998 from the original idea of developing a personal shopping trolley: strong, manoeuvrable and foldable. We have been producing this in the Ludwigsburg area near Stuttgart for over 20 years. It is sold successfully worldwide. The trolley is not only used for shopping, but in offices, production facilities, pharmacies and clinics.
A small, effective team. Everyone knows everyone. Everyone is important. Quality and sustainability already play an important role for us in the development phase. Most of our suppliers come from Baden Württemberg. We deliver with 100% quality control and thus ensure satisfied customers. We are proud of our longstanding and experienced team and of our international sales network. And we are happy about the numerous very positive customer feedback that we experience every day.
Heute stellen wir CLAX mit 8 Mitarbeitern her. Ein kleines effektives eingespieltes Team. Jeder kennt jeden. Jeder ist wichtig. Qualität und Nachhaltigkeit spielt bei uns bereits in der Entwicklungsphase eine wichtige Rolle. Unsere Lieferanten kommen zum größten Teil aus Baden Württemberg. Wir liefern mit 100% Qualitätskontrolle aus und sorgen somit für zufriedene Kunden. Wir sind stolz auf unser langjähriges und erfahrenes Team und auf unser internationales Vertriebsnetzwerk. Und freuen uns über das zahlreiche sehr positive Kundenfeedback was wir täglich erleben dürfen.
