# industrie-fachwissen.de

> industrie-fachwissen.de is a German-language B2B industrial knowledge portal publishing expert articles, product comparisons, regulatory guides, and trade fair coverage for professionals in operations, procurement, logistics, and facility management across the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). The portal covers six core categories: Büro (Office), Transport, Lager (Warehouse/Storage), Werkstatt (Workshop), Verpackung (Packaging), and Umwelt (Environment/Safety). All content targets B2B decision-makers — procurement officers, operations managers, safety officers, and facility planners — and is written in professional German.

## About the Portal

industrie-fachwissen.de provides actionable, data-driven content for industrial professionals. Articles reference real German and EU regulations (DIN, EN, ISO norms, DGUV rules, TRGS, ArbStättV, BetrSichV), include current market prices, product specifications, and compliance requirements. Content is updated regularly with 6–10 new articles published daily across all categories.

The portal features brand profiles under /brands/ with in-depth manufacturer and supplier pages, including product overviews, expert articles, and sourcing information. Featured brands include kaiserkraft (with its own brands eurokraft basic and eurokraft pro) and BERGER GROUP.

The site is independently operated and publishes editorial content for an audience of German-speaking B2B professionals. It is not affiliated with any manufacturer or supplier. Advertising is clearly separated from editorial content.
