Since PWA’s foundation more than 30 years ago, our principles I-3
and ambitions have remained the same: to offer the most extensi-
ve range of wood, metal and sheet metal machinery and machine FOREWORD
tool accessories at the best possible price – accommodating every
customer’s individual need. Bernhard Pindeus (CEO)

PWA – a Linz based family company founded in 1979 – started out
as a retailer specialising in supplying machinery and engineering
equipment throughout Austria. After fourteen years of sustained
domestic growth, PWA made a successful switch across into
wholesale (1993). A significant milestone was achieved when in
1997 when the “BERNARDO” brand was established.
Continued growth put considerable strain on our 600 m² Linz
warehouse so in 2004 we extended the building to 2000 m².
PWA expanded yet again in 2008 by building an additional central
storage in Engerwitzdorf with a storage area of 3700 m2 (20 km NE
of the state capital Linz).
Upon completion, we then fully refurbished our original site in Linz
converting the old storage area into a 1200 m² showroom that
backs on to our head office. In 2014 it was necessary to expand our
central storage in Engerwitzdorf (another 3500 m²) because of the
positive business development.
Today PWA employs 26 staff and supplies 26 countries with an
extensive and a continually expanding product portfolio distributed
from two sites.

PWA’s product lines.
