We wish all our employees, business partners, customers and suppliers a peaceful Christmas, relaxing holidays and a healthy, successful start to the new year 2026.

Our team will also be available between the holidays to answer any queries and take orders.

Thank you very much for the excellent and trusting cooperation this year.

Oliver and Luca from the ‘The Builders’ team at Buigen Gymnasium in Herbrechtingen achieved an outstanding 6th place at the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) finals in Singapore, making them the highest-ranked team from Europe.

As part of the competition, the two students independently developed and programmed the robots ‘Atlas’ and “Rubble” as well as the measuring station ‘Calvin’. On a replica Mars landscape, the robots demonstrated, among other things, how they respond to storm warnings, drill and extract soil samples, collect weather data and support each other as a team. A central element of the project was the team spirit: the robots recognise dangers and bring themselves to safety independently.

The transport box we provided will be available to the LEGO Mindstorms club at Buigen Gymnasium in the future and can also be used for the safe transport of additional robots in future competitions.

We congratulate Oliver, Luca and everyone involved on this outstanding achievement.

Over gingerbread and warm punch, we had the opportunity to personally thank representatives of teachers from schools in Günzburg and Leipheim.

Well-educated young people are essential for the future of the economy and society. This makes us all the more appreciative of the daily commitment of teachers who support and encourage young people and prepare them for the challenges of the future.

Last Friday, all employees gathered for the annual staff meeting. Management took the opportunity to look back on the past year, present developments in the individual business areas and give an outlook on what awaits us in 2026.

Last Wednesday, we had the honor of welcoming 14 kindergartens from Günzburg and Leipheim to our premises. 

Over light refreshments and punch, we took the opportunity to thank the teachers for their daily work and commitment. In addition to MUNK Bobby Cars for the little ones, each kindergarten received a MUNK ladder. Now, wobbly climbing aids such as chairs are a thing of the past.

Yesterday, on apprenticeship day 2025, we welcomed 28 school pupils from the Günzburg district to our plants.

After an official welcome by Ferdinand Munk, the young people were given a comprehensive insight into various areas of our company. During the tour, they learned about logistics, toolmaking, special construction and series production, among other things, and were able to gain a direct impression of our work processes and apprenticeship professions.

A special highlight of the day was the practical part: all participants had the opportunity to assemble a personalised aluminium pen holder on their own – an individual souvenir of their visit and Apprenticeship Day.
