company. Steadily growing demand made it necessary to hire additional employees.

Construction of the new company building on Kanalstra\u00dfe in Ebersbach began in 1950. The building was never occupied and was sold to a neighboring company shortly after completion. Production and the warehouse remained on Viehmarktstra\u00dfe for the time being. At that time, about 5 employees worked there.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8950217 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8950217\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd23e50 e-con-full the7-e-sticky-row-yes e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"cd23e50\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;the7_sticky_row&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;the7_sticky_row_devices&quot;:[&quot;widescreen&quot;,&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;laptop&quot;,&quot;tablet_extra&quot;],&quot;the7_sticky_row_offset&quot;:100,&quot;the7_sticky_parent&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;the7_sticky_parent_bottom_offset&quot;:0}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0b8bf1c elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-the7-heading\" data-id=\"0b8bf1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"the7-heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"the7-heading-title elementor-size-default\">1952<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a5ec52e elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"a5ec52e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-703349e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"703349e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5813112 content-align-left the7-hover-visibility-disabled preserve-img-ratio-cover transform-overlay-yes exceeding-frame-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-the7-image-widget\" data-id=\"5813112\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;hover_visibility&quot;:&quot;disabled&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"the7-image-widget.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"the7-image-container\"><div class=\"the7-image-wrapper the7-elementor-widget the7-transform-container\"><div class=\"post-thumbnail-rollover layzr-bg img-css-resize-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1240\" height=\"827\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D&#039;http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg&#039;%20viewBox%3D&#039;0%200%201240%20827&#039;%2F%3E\" class=\"attachment-full size-full preload-me aspect lazy lazy-load\" alt=\"Historical aerial view of the Buchele company in Ebersbach\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1240px) 100vw, 1240px\" style=\"--ratio: 1240 \/ 827;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.buchele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/buchele-2.webp\" loading=\"eager\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.buchele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/buchele-2.webp 1240w, https:\/\/www.buchele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/buchele-2-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.buchele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/buchele-2-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.buchele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/buchele-2-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.buchele.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/buchele-2-1000x667.webp 1000w\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e3e9e4e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"e3e9e4e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f9849f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f9849f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Starting in 1952, simple steel doors were manufactured.
