ALPMA

Key Facts

ALPMA (Alpenland Maschinenbau GmbH) is a German manufacturer of specialised machines and systems for the cheese dairy and food industry, headquartered in Rott am Inn.
The company provides complete solutions for cheese production, covering every stage from milk processing to ready-to-ship products.
With over 900 employees worldwide, ALPMA operates through subsidiaries and agencies across global markets.

The company was founded in 1947 by dairy master Gottfried Hain Sr. in Lehen (municipality of Pfaffing). In 1963, Gottfried Hain Jr. moved the company's headquarters to Rott am Inn. In addition to packaging machines for wrapping and canning soft cheese and other piece goods, the production range has also included systems for producing soft and semi-hard cheese since the 1950s. Developed in the early 1970s, the coagulator for continuous cheese production is one of the company's most important achievements.

Following the acquisition of Servi Doryl in France in 2009, the product range was expanded to include basin systems and portioning systems for soft and semi-hard cheeses. Slicing systems have been developed for packaging companies that use an upstream scanner to achieve high weight accuracy, even for cheeses with very uneven holes.

The company, which is wholly family-owned, is managed by Michael Weber and Frank Eberle, who report to a company advisory board.
