About company

The roots of the German family-run company Gira extend back to 1903. Richard Giersiepen constructed a further development of the then-common toggle switch and applied for a patent. Two years later he founded a company tohether with his brother Gustav tointroduce his invention and other parts for houseinstallationto the market. With it in 1905, the Giersiepen brothers laid the cornerstone of company. Soon the family-run company which fits in two small hangars was able to offer a diverse range of electric and technical products. Later, it was time to position itself as finally formed company. In 1964, the direction decided to give the company more expressive and sonorous name, so the name of Gira was arisen. It is a combination of the first syllable of the brothers' names Giersiepen and the first syllable of the name of the German town Radevormwald, where today the company plant is sited.
