History

More than half a century of quality and high standards of workmanship.

BM2 INDUSTRI A/S can look back​ on more than 55 years of manufacturing operations that represent the long and varied history of BM2 INDUSTRI A/S. Considering the development so far experienced by the firm, the future will in all probability be equally active.

​

When, in 1955, the firm was founded as a local machine shop named Bøvling Maskinværksted, focus was on the development and production of agricultural and industrial machinery. In addition, the machine shop also carried out much repair work.

​

Bøvling Maskinværksted followed the general development and mechanisation trends and, in the course of the following decades, the firm carried out considerable production – and service – work, targeted at the agricultural and industrial markets.

The firm's machine-processing of large objects was set off by the manufacturing of proofing plants – vacuum as pressureoperated. Owing to stricter environmental requirements and a market reaching saturation point, the last proofing plant was delivered in 2003.

This production had required a vertical boring and turning machine; and, subsequently, this lead to an intake of orders from markets outside the conventional customer base.

As of the mid-80's, the expansion of large machinery at our plant took off in earnest; and, today, BM2 INDUSTRI A/S is an order-producing provider of large components to e.g. the wind-turbine industry, offshore enterprises and manufacturers of cement-producing facilities.

​

In 1995, the firm was converted into a partnership; and a generational change in 2003 brought about the establishment as a limited company.

​

The manufacturing became increasingly specialised; and as, by 2005, the development of its business activities had outdistanced those of the conventional engineering shop, Bøvling Maskinværksted changed its name into BM2 INDUSTRI A/S.​​
