Kibri
Kibri is a tradition-rich manufacturer of building kits in H0 scale (1:87), today part of the Viessmann Group. The brand looks back on a history dating to 1895 and has built an excellent reputation for detailed industrial buildings and station models. The range comprises 658 models.
Kibri is particularly known for its industrial buildings — factory halls, warehouses, cranes and bridges that give a model railway layout authentic industrial character. Stations, houses and agricultural buildings are also part of the programme.
The kits are solidly engineered and offer good detailing. Under the umbrella of the Viessmann Group, the Kibri range is continuously maintained and complements the Vollmer programme (also Viessmann) ideally.

Kibri focus: industrial buildings
Kibri is especially strong in industrial buildings — factory halls, warehouses, loading facilities and cranes give a layout authentic industrial character. These buildings are excellent as backdrops for freight traffic and shunting operations.
Combining Kibri and Vollmer
As both brands belong to the Viessmann Group, Kibri and Vollmer buildings harmonise visually. Complemented with Faller buildings and Auhagen industrial structures, a varied townscape emerges on the layout.
