Ernst Kumposcht

Maltech was founded in 1975 when Johann Klopf and Ernst Kumposcht opened for business in Vienna. Kumposcht exited the day to day business in 1999 when the sons of the two founders took over. He remained in touch with the company of which Thomas Kumposcht is joint managing director, and only three weeks ago attended the official opening of the company’s new purpose designed premises in Kalsdorf, near Graz. He died on Wednesday.
