Company's 80th anniversary themed „WE ARE SCHMIDT-SEEGER“
On 8 May 2009, Schmidt-Seeger GmbH celebrated not only the company’s 80th anniversary but also the grand opening of the newly built administration and service centre, headquartered in Beilngries / Bavaria. From the former small millwright works with a staff of three, founded by Michael and Andreas Schmidt back in 1929, an innovative and customer-oriented high-growth company, with more than 400 employees and numerous agencies and subsidiaries worldwide, was formed.
The festivities started with a number of presentations. Among others, Peter Link, the provost of the Bundeslehranstalt Burg Warberg e. V., gave a lecture on „market transitions and technology changes in the grain sector“.
Since this symposium caught the immediate interest of many of our customers, we decided to hold expert conferences at regular intervals in future.
After the successful overture, the ceremonies continued with a festival for all employees and their families. The person as fellow employee in this enterprise - rich in tradition but young at heart – lies at the centre of our company's endeavours, then and now. Schmidt-Seeger has always remained a “close-knit family”. This was also the quintessence of Dr. Günter Fenneberg’s (CEO) speech. Due to the variety of our products, the know-how and the many innovations, the company is well prepared for the future, even in economic crises. Several major contracts which have been placed with Schmidt-Seeger recently are a sign of our customers’ confidence.
Many guests of honour, for instance Dr. Lutz Helmig, the managing partner of Aton GmbH, Mr. Gunther Benkert, the architect and designer of the new administration and service centre, Mrs. Tanja Schorer-Dremel, the acting district administrator and Mrs. Brigitta Frauenknecht, mayoress / Beilngries, conveyed congratulatory messages. The fate of many families in Beilngries is tightly linked with Schmidt-Seeger according to Brigitta Frauenknecht.
The new administration and service centre was then ceremonially blessed by the parish priest Josef Funk. The Berching symphonic wind-orchestra provided the principal musical component. Afterwards, all guests had the chance to take a closer look at the new building, before they went to the workshops to attend the big party with its variegated program. The machine exhibition, the demonstration of the laser cutting line, the bouncing castle and the funny make-up which delighted the kids, the fantastic buffet and the bar – in short: there was something for everybody’s taste.
Last but not least: the live band „vis-a-vis“ was rocking the house for most part of the night, keeping everyone happy and in a partying mood.
And there it was again, the sense of belonging, the feeling ‘we are one family’, WE ARE SCHMIDT-SEEGER.

A success story
The thousandth trieur made by Schmidt- Seeger leaves the factory
Beilngries, January 20, 2009: The machine with the serial number 1000 is currently on the way to Streckel & Schrader in Hamburg, one of our long-standing customers who highly appreciate the quality and capability of our ultratrieurs.
Since 1995, all trieurs fabricated by Schmidt-Seeger were of the type ‘ultratrieur’. What used to be only a small scale business in its early stages, has meanwhile grown to an annual production output of approx. 70 machines of that type.
What is the cause of this unprecedented success story?
If the screens, air sifters, gravity separators or shaking tables, which are used for certain cleaning or grading purposes, no longer contribute to a result improvement, the ultratrieur virtually fills this gap in a most perfect way. When cleaning or grading free-flowing bulk materials like wheat, barley, rice and oat but also untypical products like plastic granulates, the ultratrieur separates most accurately according to length differences while maintaining both cross-sections and specific weights. The ultratrieur is thus able to respond most accurately to finest differences in grain form and size. No matter what you want to grade, Schmidt-Seeger ultratrieurs decide about ‘short’ or „long“. Excellent separation effects, many mounting options and the modular concept are significant characteristics which are much valued by our customers.
Numerous plants (malting plants, silo and storage plants, seed processing plants, feedstuff factories and flour mills) built by Schmidt-Seeger around the globe attest this technical competence, just like our ultratrieur, which has also been installed in many of these plants. In 2008, Schmidt-Seeger received the largest single order in the company history, namely for delivery of 27 trieurs to a customer in India. Naturally, the ultratrieur forges also ahead as stand-alone machine, used mainly by the food processing and recycling industries. Due to continuous refinements and the improvements achieved for processing of the materials used, as well as the steady increase of the series production, one can say that the Schmidt-Seeger ultratrieur - a machine which is in use in all parts of the world - is the culmination of developments on a successful concept.
How will this story continue? Another 1000 trieurs will follow!

Schmidt Seeger GmbH participated the one day meeting/exhibition of the Thai Rice Mills Association in Patumthani, Thailand on 8th November 2008.
