Our history
Since 1870, FRICKE has been synonymous with precision dosing and filling systems. As a family-run mechanical engineering company based in Minden, Germany, we combine traditional values with modern automation and intelligent process control.
1870
Foundation
In Rehme, metalworker Fritz Fricke, great-grandfather of the current owner Bernd Fricke, began manufacturing decimal scales. His precise scales created fair trading conditions for producers and buyers of agricultural products.
1960
Getting started with bulk handling technology
With the arrival of Werner Fricke, the product portfolio was expanded to include bagging scales for coal and briquettes. FRICKE developed from a scale manufacturer into a provider of industrial solutions for weighing, dosing, and filling bulk materials.
1967
First filling station
From 1967 onwards, paint and varnish manufacturers placed their trust in FRICKE's first industrial filling systems – a decisive step towards modern, reproducible filling technology.
1980
Getting started with dosing technology
FRICKE was involved in the development and construction of a dosing system that set new standards in the perfume and flavor industry thanks to its accuracy, versatility, and technology.
1987
Own dosing software
FRICKE became a technological pioneer with the development of its own dosing software. To this day, the software forms the basis for automated, reproducible, and reliable dosing solutions.
1995
Moving to Minden, Meißen
New production and administration building and relocation to the current location in the Meißen industrial park in Minden – a clear commitment to growth, modernization, and long-term location development.
2000 - 2015
Site expansions
The owners, Brunhild and Werner Fricke, together with two of their sons, look back on various expansions at the site in front of the administration building in Minden: additional storage and production areas, offices, and a modern vertical warehouse.
2021
