The origin of MB Companies Inc. dates back to 1907. The company was formed by three German craftsmen, brothers Otto and Fred Meili and Paul Blumberg. Not surprisingly, they adopted the name "MB", which is still used today. The Meili brothers were inventors and Blumberg was an expert metalworker. Together, they started the company in a small shop in New Holstein, Wisconsin building agricultural implements. MB has enjoyed steady growth, including the construction in 1974 of an additional facility in Chilton, Wisconsin. In 2003, MB acquired the Pro Chip family of wood and brush chippers. Then in 2004, MB acquired the Lafarge Road Marking Equipment Division, located in Montgomery, Pennsylvania. In 2011, MB released five new products in the Airport Snow Removal Equipment market. MB continues to focus on key niche markets and providing equipment to meet the needs of independent contractors, governmental agencies, and other road, turf and airport maintenance organizations around the world. MB Companies, Inc. Became a member of the Aebi Schmidt Group in 2018. MB continues to grow and provide the products and services its customers demand. The company is dedicated to being the leader in performance, reliability and customer service, as it has since its inception in 1907.
