The company
hfw-group GmbH employs more than 630 people in Austria and Germany - a number that is constantly rising. With a strong team, we are asserting ourselves as a digital pioneer in the construction and ancillary construction industry. Together, we pursue a strategy that sets the course for tomorrow today: To push the belief in the craft and the importance of training in tiling work.
The team is the most important pillar of any company and our direct key to success.
Turn three into one or: better together
Since January 2021, the thoroughbred entrepreneurs Reinhard Hirtl, Franz Fuchsberger and Andreas Wurm have been pooling their expertise in the joint construction holding company. There is no sign of stagnation - the group is growing steadily.
The managing directors and namesakes of the group of companies not only share a passion for the tiling trade, but also pursue a common goal: to utilise potential in order to offer clients the best quality with high productivity. At the same time, the passion for craftsmanship and digitalisation should be passed on to the youngest members of the labour market.

The future lies in the skilled trades: The trades, be it tiling, roofing or plumbing, are always in demand.
The social image of a skilled trade apprenticeship does not (or no longer) correspond to reality: The idea that skilled trades professions are poorly paid and far removed from any modern technology is a thing of the past. We are convinced that the image of the skilled trades must change and would like to make our contribution to this: modern work with qualified expertise and sound knowledge during and after the training period.
We want the digital change not only as contemporary witnesses, but actively help shape. With the digital solutions from our subsidiary digu digital unlimited GmbH, our other companies can benefit significantly in their day-to-day work.
In order to reap the full benefits of digitalisation, it is essential to analyse your own processes and optimise them accordingly. A uniform definition - which is required for the use of digital tools - pushes your own workflows and digitalisation can fully exploit its advantages:
- The end of paperwork
- One-time data entry
- Structured and conscious communication
- Resource savings
Aesthetics, cost efficiency and sustainability are at the centre of building-integrated photovoltaic roofs in no contradiction. The solar roofs from Firstkraft GmbH combine traditional metal roof design with state-of-the-art solar technology. The fully integrated solar modules in the metal roof are not only weather-resistant and hail-proof, they also provide efficient energy for your home. Tradition and innovation go hand in hand here.
Encourage, pursue dreams, live visions, find your calling.
The interpretation of the term "career" is as individual as we humans ourselves. In the Group, we give you the opportunity to develop individually and to surpass yourself. Teamwork is very important to us.
Hands-on: We see personal initiative as a basic prerequisite for personal and professional success. Knowledge is only valuable when it is put into practice.
"Digitalisation does not replace people, it rather expands their possibilities"
