Birner initiative against the crisis

Together with the Austrian manufacturer partners CPC, Sonax, Henkel, Lack & Technik, Banner, Pewag and BiTec and the participating ÖHÖ vehicle workshops, Birner wants to make an active contribution to the mobility of Austrians with one of three free extra services to promote and get the economic engine running again.

On the  website Competent and reliable vehicle workshops can be found that offer end customers one of these three extra services - as part of a repair, service or §57a inspection:

  • 15 Minuten Arbeitszeit geschenkt oder
  • kostenloses Nachfüllen von Sonax Scheibenreiniger oder
  • 10%-Rabatt bei einer Klimaanlagendesinfektion

The goal: protect the wallets of end consumers and support the regional workshop. 
"The Corona crisis is a major challenge for the Austrian economy and society. Since the social values ​​of cohesion, helpfulness, courage and loyalty are important to the Birner company, it is natural for us as a company to make an active contribution. We have therefore founded the initiative "Austrians help Austrians" together with our manufacturer partners in order to support both business owners and Austrian citizens to the same high degree."says Franz Lettner, Managing Director Birner.

It is particularly important to be mobile in these difficult times. Whether for running errands, running errands or taking older family members to doctor's appointments - the car is now more important than ever. That's why I'm pleased that our initiative "Austrians help Austrians" offers real help, promotes mobility and also supports Austrian vehicle workshops. This is how we create a win-win outcome for everyone.”says Gerhard Körber, spokesman for the management.
