Founded in 1852, the ANDRITZ Graz workshop manufactures components for the major business areas within Andritz (hydro power, pulp and paper, environmental and metals industries).
On the tour you will be introduced to major workshops and the manufacturing process of Andritz products. It is Andritz' strategy to manufacture the key proprietary components for our equipment in-house to ensure that the most stringent quality requirements are adhered to. Many other components are subcontracted within our network of certified facilities. This way Andritz has direct control over capacity management and cost leadership.
Wine Tasting Tour to Seggau Castle
The plant tour is followed by a wine tasting to to Seggau Castle. Beneath poplars and chestnut trees, where the Klapotetz beats time, life revolves around wine. An
internationally more and more popular variety of local white wine reach the peak of maturity amidst the
