The first product was the T 70 V wooden lattice girder belt which had a patented node connection. This was replaced by the GT 24 girder in 1985. The ACS (Automatic Climbing System) was PERI's development of a self-climbing technology system. This technology enables the casting of tall buildings with minimal crane use. At the beginning of the 1980s, PERI was at the forefront of using aluminum in the construction business.
In January 2009 Artur Schwörer was awarded the Bavarian Order of Merit for his life's work.
Product overview
The PERI product range can be divided into six areas: formwork, scaffolding, engineering, plywood & panel trade, components & accessories, and complementary products.
