TRM has been considered the leading provider of cast-iron pipework and driven-pile technology for many decades. This has earned TRM the reputation of a trusted partner in water management and special civil engineering in Austria and neighbouring countries. Owned by the ­Kloger family since 2013, the company has recently been turning heads again with the extensive expansion of its brand last year. Besides opening TRM Swiss, an independent subsidiary in Switzerland, TRM also ­acquired Lower Bavarian provider Frischhut, a tradition-steeped ­manufacturer of cast-molded parts. Both of these strategic moves have opened up new perspectives for TRM. “At TRM we like to think in long-­­term dimensions. Our acquisitions are anything but reactions to short-­lived market trends,” comments Max Kloger, TRM’s owner-manager.
