The energy pioneers - the Schneider Weisse brewery leads the way
The Brauerei Schneider Weisse brewery based in Kelheim was founded in 1607 by the Bavarian Duke Maximilian I, making it the oldest wheat beer brewery in Bavaria. the Schneider family bought the business in 1827. Since then, the brewery has been successfully run by several generations.
Georg Schneider VI, master brewer with heart and soul and current owner of Schneider Weisse, explains in an interview with Focus how he managed to become largely independent of fossil fuels and switch to sustainable energy from the region.
He generates his own energy using wood chips, which are reliably supplied by farmers in the region, which he then uses to cook the brewhouse, clean and fill the beer bottles and heat the buildings and the restaurant next door.
The concept developed and implemented by our consulting and engineering team has proven its worth for more than 10 years: Schneider Weisse burns wood residues from forest and woodland management and landscape conservation, thus ensuring sustainability in the region.
20 Years at Gammel Engineering—Congratulations, Florian!
Today we celebrated a special anniversary: Florian Prantl has been with Gammel Engineering for 20 years. Over these two decades, technologies have changed, projects have evolved, and teams have been reorganized.
One thing has remained constant: Florian Prantl is a reliable member of the Gammel Engineering team.
In 2026, Gammel Engineering was once again ready to head to the Gillamoos! Together with our partners, we kicked off the “fifth season” in Abensberg on Friday, as is our tradition.
Michael and Gudrun Gammel rounded out the kickoff of the new yoga season with a light meal. With a particularly delicious meal featuring fish and cheese, we were able to wind down the evening in a cozy atmosphere.
