The portfolio includes solar simulation systems with global radiation, infrared and UV irradiation equipment, as well as lighting systems for high-speed applications such as in crash test facilities.
BF Engineering was founded in 2010 and is a medium-sized company based in Geretsried, about 30 km south of Munich. BF Engineering employs a workforce of 40 in Geretsried and has been a recognised training organisation in the field of electrical engineering since 2019.
BF Engineering has successfully completed hundreds of solar simulation and irradiation systems and is valued worldwide as a reliable partner for test facility applications.
Our highly motivated employees can draw on years of experience in the design, development, manufacture and installation of solar simulation and irradiation systems. This experience combined with customer-focused, innovative and sustainable business practices is the basis for the success of our company.
All the design and development activities in the lighting, mechanical, electrical and control engineering fields are carried out entirely in-house as is our management, production and assembly.
Our well-trained commissioning and service team work closely with our customers all over the world to ensure the quality of our systems.
In January 2020, we opened our subsidiary in Shanghai so that we could provide optimum and effective sales and customer service support to our many customers in the Asiatic region through a local presence.
