Kirsch - your partner for refrigeration in the health sector
Established in 1865, the Philipp KIRSCH company started out as a coppersmith's workshop. This craft business mainly produced distilling apparatus used for the production of alcohol. At the turn of the century, the company began to make the first cooling systems for natural ice.
In the mid-1920s, the craft business, which had grown larger in the course of the years, embarked on the production of other refrigerating products as well and became a genuine industrial plant.
Since the introduction of our first electronic compressor-cooled refrigerator more than 50 years ago, the product range has been regularly extended and its technical development linked closely to state-of-the-art technologies.
The high-quality KIRSCH refrigerators and freezers are all used around the globe - in pharmacies, hospitals, clinics, blood banks, institutes and laboratories.
Today - in the 4th generation - we use the very latest manufacturing methods in our plant in Offenburg for the series production of:
- Pharmaceutical refrigerators according to DIN 58345 and pharmaceutical freezers
- Blood bank refrigerators according to DIN 58371
