FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does Franz Klotz GmbH also produce single pieces?
We are built for flexibility. Whether you need a prototype, a custom-fitted single piece (one-off), or a small batch — our production planning adapts to your needs.
What welding certifications does Klotz GmbH hold?
Safety is certified at our company. We are an audited welding specialist company under DIN EN 1090-2 and DIN EN ISO 3834-3. In addition, we are approved as a specialist company under AwSV (water protection regulations). Our components meet strict industrial and legal requirements.
Does Klotz also deliver to the USA or other EU countries?
Yes, we export worldwide. We take care of safe, IPPC-compliant packaging (important for USA/overseas) and the necessary documents. Whether ex works or organized by us: your components arrive safely and customs-compliant.
Which materials are primarily processed?
Our specialty is processing stainless steel (e.g. V2A, V4A) for long-lasting industrial applications, as well as structural steel and aluminum. We also offer complete surface finishing — from blasting to coating or pickling.
Is it worth repairing centrifuge baskets?
Often yes. Our repair service inspects your defective screen baskets or system components. Professional restoration or just a new inlet is often faster and more cost-efficient than a complete replacement — and conserves resources.
How quickly does Franz Klotz GmbH deliver?
Thanks to our large stock of raw materials and in-house production (high vertical integration), we can react very quickly. In case of downtime or rush orders, our short supply chains often enable significantly faster delivery times than the market standard.
