About ARNELL | Arno Hentschel GmbH

Who we are

ARNELL | Arno Hentschel GmbH Tradition meets precision – metal expertise since 1943 ARNELL | Arno Hentschel GmbH, based in Zittau (Saxony), is a traditional metalworking company that has been manufacturing high-quality metal products and forming tools for customers throughout Europe for over 80 years. Founded in 1943 in Oderwitz, ARNELL has developed from a regional plumbing business into a modern provider of customized metal solutions with a clear focus on quality, precision, and sustainability. Service Portfolio Metal Products ARNELL produces customized components and assemblies from flat and wire material – from single pieces to high-volume series production. The products are used in the automotive industry, construction, furniture manufacturing, mechanical engineering, and motorhome manufacturing. Key Strengths: - Customized solutions for specific customer requirements - High material efficiency and durability - Manufacturing using modern sheet metal processing methods Forming Tools With over 60 years of experience in toolmaking, ARNELL develops high-precision forming tools for industrial series production. The company specializes in: - Progressive composite tools - Bihler stamping and bending tools (LEANTOOL radial & linear) - Fixtures for complex manufacturing processes These tools enable efficient, high-quality production of metal parts and are essential for automation and process reliability in manufacturing. Technology & Sustainability ARNELL relies on modern manufacturing technologies and high-quality materials. The new building in Zittau, which was occupied in 2021, is equipped with a photovoltaic system that generates more electricity throughout the year than is consumed internally. The vehicle fleet has been fully hybrid or fully electric since 2023. Social Commitment The Arno Hentschel Foundation, founded in 1998, is an integral part of the company and supports social projects in the region. ARNELL is actively committed to inclusion and improving the quality of life for disadvantaged people.
