Our history

1911-1935

Foundation and first years

In 1911, Alois Paul Linder set up his own oven construction business in Munich, laying the foundations for today's DEBAG company. His company initially develops and builds brick ovens.

1936
Invention of the MONSUN system

Linder's breakthrough came with the invention of the MONSUN system. In 1936, he applies for a patent for his new baking technology. Due to increasing demand, the production facility in Munich is constantly expanded. Even the Second World War only briefly interrupted the success story.

1945-1990

Growth to market leader for artisan ovens

Production is resumed as early as 1945. In the following decades, the family business continues to develop solidly - it becomes the market leader in the production of artisan ovens in German-speaking countries. International orders and deliveries to Asia, Africa, South and North America ensure additional growth.

1990-2000
Strong together: the new DEBAG

In the early 1990s, the company merged with the only oven construction company in the GDR, BOFABA, which was incorporated into the "Fortschritt Landmaschinenbau" combine in the early 1970s. This creates the DEBAG company in its current form with its headquarters in Bautzen. The Munich site is closed.

2000-today

Market leadership and international growth

The turn of the millennium also marks the breakthrough for DEBAG. The export business grows rapidly - initially in Europe, but shortly afterwards also globally. New markets and customer groups are opened up. This is accompanied by the development of numerous new products - in close cooperation with the partners in the group of companies, alexandersolia and ascobloc.

Foreign subsidiaries are founded in Poland, France and Russia.

Today, DEBAG is one of the world's leading manufacturers of oven, baking, proofing and refrigeration technology. As a full-service provider in the field of technical equipment for bakeries, DEBAG offers all products and services from a single source - in over 50 countries worldwide.
