Shipping / Warehouse
So that your frames arrive in one piece.
The packaging must ensure that the frames are transported safely. That is why we have developed particularly resilient packaging - statically well thought out. We ship all our frames in this packaging. We regularly carry out drop tests to optimize our packaging. In our endurance tests, we drop a parcel ten times - including onto the edges. That lasts. Because our department is also very concerned about sustainability, the packaging and padding material are made from recycled corrugated cardboard, which can be easily recycled again. Our parcel shipping with GLS and DPD is climate-neutral. Minimal packaging volume, customized shipping packaging reduce transport volumes and the use of packaging and padding material. The cardboard packaging we use is made from recycled paper and we produce the filling material ourselves.
Many years ago, we were impressed by a crazy experiment on the load-bearing capacity of cardboard. Students from Karlsruhe built a complete car bridge out of corrugated cardboard and drove a car over it. It worked really well and convinced us.

I've been here since March 2020. At that time, they were looking for a new colleague in the dispatch department and I've been here ever since. During that time, I've already worked in final assembly and in the sheet metal department in addition to my current department. The fact that I now get my hands on the frames at the end in the dispatch department means that completeness and thoroughness are very important to me. One of my favorites is every frame that reaches the customer in one piece. I think that every day is a special day because it's always fun to come to work.
We are Alexander, Manuel, Florian, Leo and Sven and are responsible for shipping HALBE frames. Into the box and ready - sounds as simple as the magnetic system of our frames. But we have also spent years experimenting with packaging and have worked out the perfect solution for us. This includes a machine for dimensionally accurate shipping boxes, which we use to produce a box that fits every order exactly. Nothing wobbles or jolts during shipping.
Manuel
I've been with the company since August 2023, thanks to a recommendation from Dominik, who used to work at HALBE. I started in shipping and now take care of the safe packaging and fast shipping of all frames. I have also already built insert frames. I attach great importance to regular work with as little ambiguity as possible and good communication within the team. One of my highlights so far has definitely been the company outing in Bad Marienberg, because you get to know your colleagues in a completely different way on occasions like this.
Leo
I started working at HALBE in 2000 because my wife also worked here and was always satisfied. For many years I worked in the shipping department. At the moment I am responsible for the receiving department and I am sawing plexiglass where absolute accuracy is important. Our products are special to me, which is why I don't have one frame, but several.
Florian
I started working for HALBE in October 2023. I first heard about HALBE because we bought the house from Hubert Halbe, David's grandfather and company founder. In my short time there, I mainly worked in dispatch and also in final assembly. In every department, I realized again and again how important cleanliness, orderly work, collegial and respectful cooperation are. Unfortunately, I don't have a favorite frame yet, but I'm sure there will be one soon.

I'm still very new to the team. How did I get here? It was real teamwork at home: my mother discovered the job offer, my wife secretly wrote the application - and suddenly I had the acceptance in my hand. Fortunately, because it was a perfect fit. I currently work in shipping, where one thing is particularly important: stability and protection. Both are particularly important to me personally - because what goes out here should not only look good, but also arrive safely with the customer.
I don't have a favorite frame (yet) - but who knows what the next few months will bring. The selection is large and the first impressions are promising!
