Our Company
Engineering with a legacy – experience, growth and vision
Since its founding in 1990, S.K.M. has stood for technical precision, craftsmanship and sustainable development. What began as a small mechanical engineering workshop has grown into a powerful company specialised in hydraulic steel structures and hydropower projects. Classic mechanical engineering remains part of our DNA – as does the continuous development of our site in Kammern, Styria.
With a high level of in-house production, an experienced team and committed apprenticeship training, we combine tradition with technical innovation – delivering customised solutions for both industrial and hydraulic engineering sectors.
