The ECOBRA Company was established 1893 in Nuremberg by a master craftsman called
Johann Eichmüller.
In the Middle Ages many compass forges were located in this area.
From then on ECOBRA has been dealing with the construction and manufacturing of compasses both for the educational and
the professional sector.
After some years of business very active trade relations started with the USA, where at that time the industrialization set
in.
After the company's founder passed away in 1908 the factory for drafting instruments, which at that time was called
“Eichmüller & Co.” , developed to one of the most important business companies of this branch and kept
constantly expanding.
In 1922 the company was transformed into a public limited company named “Bayerische Reißzeugfabrik AG”
formerly “Eichmüller & Co.”
Later on ECOBRA got its name out of the company's initials EICHMÜLLER & CO. BAYERISCHE REISSZEUGFABRIK AKTIIENGESELLSCHAFT and hence the world-famous trademark
“ECOBRA” was born.
During the fifties the ECOBRA drafting instruments were exported into more than 60 countries. At the end of 1968 ECOBRA
succeeded in constructing a geometry compass with quick-action mechanism, 2 pressure levers and automatic setting of the
spindle. Even today this modern type of compass is sold very well.
During the past years a big range of products has been added to ECOBRA`s product range and ECOBRA has became one of the
leading and renowned German manufacturers.
