The location in Dittersdorf also offers 2 company-owned e-charging stations.
All employees of FLEXIVA can currently charge their e-cars for FREE during their working hours.
Energy efficiency is the focus
With the construction of the 2452 m² production hall, we created significantly more space for modern offices and production areas. In addition to optimized production processes, we focus on the efficient use of energy at FLEXIVA. For this reason, we had a 132kW photovoltaic system installed on the roof of the hall.
Cooling in summer and heating in winter is done with our reversible heat pump. This is supplied with electricity by our wind turbine, among other things.
"Saxony is in bloom" is an initiative of the Saxon state parliament. With insect-friendly management, the meadow serves as a habitat for many insect species.
FLEXIVA supports this project with its meadow behind the production hall in Weissbach.
For the achievement of shared goals, we have set ourselves the following objectives:
It all began in January 1990. Three young engineers didn't want to wait any longer for the "flourishing landscape" and resigned from their VEB combine in Chemnitz. An unbelievable occurance for GDR standards, when considering the uncertainties of that time. The shortage economy quickly helped to fill the order books. The main tasks were the development and implementation of special solutions using programmable logic controllers.
The situation changed abruptly with the monetary union. All orders were cancelled and there were no new ones. So all three friends decided to try their luck in the old West German federal states. The main goal was to update their good theoretical knowledge. This worked very well and in mid-1991 they met in Markgröningen, near Stuttgart, in the electrical production (at that time) at facility DÜRR®.
The opperations manager at the time was impressed by the commitment, diligence and skill of the three engineers. More employees were hired, who then all worked in Markgroningen. In a few months there were around 15 employees and msr-soft GmbH was launched, which became FLEXIVA in 1995.
In 1998 the management decided to buy an old hosiery factory in the same place. The software and robot programming department was established. In 2015, the decision was made to build a new energy-efficient production hall in Amtsberg / Weißbach. Today FLEXIVA employs over 90 people and also has a branch in Darmstadt.

With the current volume of orders, a significantly more extensive warehouse design is necessary. Due to the good experience we have had with the Hänel storage lift, a second lift was installed in our warehouse from 03/01/2022 to 03/08/2022. The colleagues in the warehouse have already started storing items. As a result, we now have a considerably larger storage area on a smaller footprint. We hope that this lift will save us long walks and provide more clarity in the warehouse.
The landscape conservation association Zschopau-/Flöhatal wants to improve the living conditions for bumblebees, butterflies and wild bees with a project. A company from Weißbach goes along
The landscape conservation association Zschopau-/Flöhatal wants to improve the living conditions for bumblebees, butterflies and wild bees with a project. A company from Weißbach sets a good example. Electrical devices and control cabinets are actually Rainer Hollnagel's thing. The managing director of the Weißbach-based company Flexiva has also devoted himself to lawn pavers and plants over the past three weeks. “Everything is designed so that we produce ecologically. This includes giving nature its space,” he describes the company philosophy, which now also includes an island of life in addition to the e-charging station and heat pump. This is the new company car park, which, thanks to an initiative by the Zschopau-/Flöhatal landscape conservation association, not only offers space for 46 cars,
"They found the door open to us," says Hollnagel about the project for which Yvonne Scholz is primarily responsible at the Pobershau club. For a year she has been trying to get in touch with municipalities, companies and citizens to draw attention to her concerns. Funding can be obtained from the Leader region Zwönitztal / Greifensteine. But the money is not absolutely necessary.
"In principle, everyone can do something to improve the habitat for butterflies, bumblebees and wild bees," says the project worker: "It would be a step forward if some green spaces were no longer mowed five or six times a year, but maybe only two Mal." But that's where the problem lies, because many people can't stand wild

On Monday, August 24th, 2020, we welcomed our 2 new trainees for the training as "Electronics technician for industrial engineering". First we went to our main building in Dittersdorf together with the trainer for electronics. In addition to a guided tour, work clothes and keys were accepted here. Then we went back to the production hall in Weißbach to get our own tools and to discuss all other organizational matters.
We wish the new trainees a lot of fun with their training, that they always feel comfortable and acquire a lot of interesting knowledge.

On Tuesday, August 11th, 2020, there was a small surprise party for the managing director for the 30th anniversary of FLEXIVA. The event was originally supposed to take place as part of this year's summer festival, which unfortunately had to be canceled due to Corona.
Our automation manager gave a brief look back at the beginnings and development of the FLEXIVA. What began in an office with 3 people has developed into a growth-oriented company with currently 100 employees, 3 locations, its own wind turbine, several e-charging stations, a fleet of currently 8 company vehicles, a large photovoltaic system and a steadily growing customer base.
"Always oriented towards the market - never stand still."
This attitude of Mr. Hollnagel, the managing director of FLEXIVA, has shaped the company successfully for 30 years now.
We congratulate and say: "Keep it up!"

We are now offering our employees the opportunity to obtain their personal desired company bike conveniently and inexpensively from FLEXIVA. You can park it safely during your working hours in the lockable garage for bicycles and motorbikes, which will be set up next to our production hall in December 2020, and charge it free of charge at the charging stations provided. Our employees ride their company bike whenever they want: to work, in everyday life, on vacation or for sports. Our contractual partner is JobRad. Using the JobRad portal, which we have set up, you can easily calculate your savings and find out all about the entire process. In order to show our employees that their health is important to us, we pay for the fully comprehensive insurance of the JobRad for the entire 36-month term for motivation and additional financial relief.

The usual care of our green spaces has led to a drastic decline in butterflies throughout Europe.
"Saxony is blooming" is an initiative of the Saxon State Parliament. The Saxon State Foundation for Nature and the Environment (LaNu) provides locally certified seeds for suitable areas as part of the project "Doll's house wanted - blooming meadows for Saxony's butterflies". With insect-friendly management, it serves as a habitat for many insect species and promotes biotope networking in Saxony.
FLEXIVA applied for this project with its meadow behind the production hall in Weißbach and meets the requirements. The preparations have already started. On Saturday, the managing director of FLEXIVA successfully sowed and rolled the seed. Now the seeds can germinate well with the help of plenty of moisture. With a little patience we can soon enjoy a beautiful butterfly meadow.
On November 12, 2019, another company tour took place in our FLEXIVA. Pupils in grade 9 of a regional high school took a look at our energy-efficient production hall in Weißbach and received information about our company as well as about the apprenticeships for electronics technicians for industrial engineering and industrial clerks.
The students were then given a short tour of our production hall. At the end, they were allowed to carry out a practical exercise, which everyone completed with enthusiasm. We were very happy about the interested students. The doors at FLEXIVA are open to you for student internships and holiday work.
