History
Since its foundation in 1966, the ift Rosenheim feels obliged towards a holistic view of building components and constructions. The ift accompanies the window, facade and door industry, material independant, in all questions related to standards, research, accreditation as well as proof of tests or calculations and certificates.
The close links to the industry, resulting from product testing, the applied research and the surveillance and monitoring activities, entitles the more than 90 ift employees to find efficient and adequate solutions to all practical problems. The collaboration in over 87 national, European and international standardisation bodies and committees ensures the decisive know-how advantage for our clients.
