Rosenheim's general contractor with a handshake mentality

The close cooperation between all our divisions in building construction, civil engineering, timber construction and turnkey construction gives us unique clout.

our Foundation: Tradition and Innovation

We know where we come from. But we also know where we want to go and how to get there: with comprehensive service for our clients, with passion for our work, with a great sense of responsibility for our projects and lived down-to-earthness. We focus on innovation, modern construction concepts and cooperative partnerships.

We firmly believe that no one should be left alone with their questions or worries. That’s why we are always there: in person, on the phone or directly on site!

This joy in realizing projects that impress and endure is what drives us. We are proud to create something that others might not be able to!

We work as a genuine construction partner and do not see ourselves as a blunt executor. Despite the size of our projects, we have a certain handshake mentality and do everything we can to make things happen. Or to summarize: “We care!”

Where others see “tradition” and “innovation” as a contradiction, they form the foundation for us in unity. We know where we come from. But we also know where we want to go and how to get there. Because we are not just any construction company. We are Grossmann.

Sustainability is playing an increasingly important role in the construction industry. By using environmentally friendly materials, energy-efficient technologies and resource-saving construction methods, we actively contribute to climate protection. In addition to ecological responsibility, we also focus on social aspects, fair working conditions and the promotion of regional economic cycles. This results in buildings that meet today’s requirements and offer future generations real added value.

Real construction partners

Instead of Dull Order Processors

We want to be pioneers who always think one step ahead and find new ways with modern technology, sustainable solutions and genuine innovative strength. But for all our development, one thing has always remained the same: Our passion for service and building. We are genuine construction partners for our customers: reliable, honest, with a handshake mentality. We listen, understand what is needed and then find suitable solutions. In short: we take care of everything from A to Z! Customers get answers from us and can rely on us.

our First Steps

The first steps of our work can be traced back to May 13, 1907, when Bartholomäus Grossmann, as master mason, founded the construction company B. Grossmann in Weikering near Vogtareuth. Today, almost 118 years later, we are one of the oldest and largest companies in our industry in the Rosenheim district, leaving its mark throughout southern Bavaria and in some cases throughout Germany.

1907

Where it all began…

On May 13, 1907, master bricklayer Bartholomäus Grossmann laid the foundation stone in Vogtareuth for the construction company B. Grossmann. He founded the company with genuine pride in his craft, courage and a vision. Even then, quality, reliability and a love of construction were the focus.

“We love building and are proud of the company!”

1920-1930

Off to Rosenheim!

With growing success, the construction business moved to Rosenheim. The acquisition of a plot of land with its own railway siding was a milestone and is still the company’s headquarters today. This decision shows: Foresight and investment in the future were already part of our company’s DNA back then.

“We are a handshake company. With us, you just talk things out.”

1948

The change of generations

The second generation took over: Josef and Emeran Grossmann continued to run the company as a limited partnership.

Expansion with grounding

The founding of the civil engineering, road construction and bridge construction department brought new growth. This division developed into a high-turnover department. Always with us: our aim to find the right solution for every project and at the same time not to lose our footing.

1963-1979

Innovation across the board

We were one of the first construction companies to set new standards in timber construction with the “Large Glue Permit” and the “Glued Timber Construction Quality Mark”. The construction of the first bitumen mixing plant in Munich marked further progress. A new heating center, drying chamber and a production line expanded our timber construction department.

“We have always created innovations!”

1992-2002

Handover to the third generation

When the third generation joined the company in 1992, an important foundation stone for the future was laid at Grossmann Bau. Step by step, the new shareholders took on responsibility and grew into their roles, accompanied by experience, trust and a clear eye for continuity. In 2002, overall entrepreneurial responsibility passed completely to the third generation. Proven values were retained, while at the same time new impetus was provided. The result is an understanding of leadership that consistently combines tradition and further development.

“Responsibility grows and is passed on.”

1998-1999

New form, proven substance

The change of name to Grossmann Bau GmbH & Co KG gave the company a new legal structure. The signature of the Grossmann family and the values of the company remained unchanged. We continued to expand with a third production hall for glued laminated timber construction.

“We are partners, more than just recipients of orders.”

2007

100 years of Grossmann Bau

A century of construction history – celebrated with everyone who has accompanied us along the way: Customers, employees, partners. This anniversary was not just a look back, but above all a look forward to everything that was yet to come.

“Joint parties and celebrations are always a highlight!”

2010-2013

Investments for quality

Renting a new production hall, investing in a CNC system, building a formwork washing hall and a new bitumen mixing plant in Schwabering. All of this underlines our commitment to delivering the highest quality and actively shaping technological developments. For our customers. For our future.

“We offer the complete range of construction services.”

2016

Relay baton passed on

After more than 30 years of successful management in building construction, civil engineering and turnkey construction, Elias Laar retired. With Siegfried Huber, the next generation takes over. Ready to break new ground and carry the company’s values into a modern future.

“We simply love building!”

2020-2023

Sustainability rethought

A new chapter has been opened with extensive investment in glued laminated timber construction and the renovation of the production halls. This also shows that our innovative spirit is deeply rooted in traditional craftsmanship. We are investing in a new combined heat and power plant to supply energy.

“At Grossmann, tradition meets innovation. We are pioneers!”
