BG BAU funded products offer a key advantage for tradespeople aiming to create safer, healthier and more efficient worksites. At Karl Dahm, professional tilers and construction professionals will find a dedicated selection of tools and aids that are not only practical and ergonomic, but also financially supported by BG BAU – the German Social Accident Insurance for the construction industry – with up to 50% reimbursement available.
The BG BAU (Berufsgenossenschaft der Bauwirtschaft) is the statutory accident insurance institution for the construction sector in Germany. It promotes accident prevention and health protection by subsidising equipment that improves workplace safety and ergonomics.
At Karl Dahm, we supply tools that meet BG BAU’s strict safety and ergonomic criteria – developed through practical experience, refined through innovation, and officially eligible for funding.
Day-to-day work on a construction site presents a range of risks – especially for tilers who work in awkward postures, are exposed to dust, or operate in unstable environments.
Common scenarios include:
Standing on makeshift step-ups like crates or buckets
Cutting and grinding without proper dust control
Repeated bending, kneeling or lifting without support
BG BAU funded tools help resolve these issues by improving working posture, minimising risk of injury and reducing exposure to harmful particles. They are designed with the practical demands of tradespeople in mind – enhancing both safety and productivity.
With every BG BAU eligible product, you benefit from:
Up to 50% reimbursement of the purchase price via BG BAU
Long-term protection of your health and physical well-being
Verified product quality – trusted by professionals across Europe
Easy application process – all forms are available right alongside the relevant product
Look for the “BG BAU funded” label in our shop – only these items qualify for reimbursement.
Dust exposure, especially from mineral particles, poses a serious health hazard. Without proper filtration, this dust can lead to chronic respiratory conditions. BG BAU-approved dust extractors help you work in compliance with regulations – while protecting your lungs.
Unstable climbing aids like crates or buckets are common but dangerous. Professional, funded working platforms offer a secure, non-slip base, dramatically reducing the risk of falls and injuries.
When it comes to long shifts on your knees or lifting heavy materials, ergonomic tools funded by BG BAU relieve pressure on joints and muscles – and help prevent chronic pain or long-term disability.
Karl Dahm is a recognised leader in the development of high-quality tiling tools. Our long-standing experience and hands-on expertise are embedded in every product we offer – and many of them qualify for BG BAU funding.
We work closely with industry professionals to deliver durable, efficient and safety-conscious solutions. Every product in our funded range has been thoroughly tested to meet the challenges of modern construction work.
