our milestones

Mosdorfer looks back on an exceptionally long history, dating back to the 14th century. The blade forge on the Weizbach – documented under the name Mosdorfer since 1712 – quickly developed into one of the region’s most important craft businesses.

Transmission line fittings since 1949

Since 1949 Mosdorfer has been developing and manufacturing fittings and components for overhead transmission lines. What began as a regional business has, over the decades, grown into a global market player through steady expansion and a commitment to innovation.

Every milestone in our history demonstrates how we combine tradition with progress – with the aim of making the energy infrastructure of today and tomorrow safer, more efficient and more sustainable.

Closely linked to the history of the Knill Group

The two companies share not only a common origin, but also the same values: innovation, technical excellence and an international outlook. This connection continues to shape the company’s development to this day and reinforces Mosdorfer’s role as a leading centre of expertise for the development and production of components for overhead line construction.
