In the 1950s, the Constructa was the first washing machine manufactured in Germany, representing a breakthrough for the manufacturer Constructa Werke GmbH. With an 80 percent market share, the company was still the clear leader among washing machine producers in Germany even 20 years on. Constructa was taken over by Siemens in 1961 and thus became an integral part of BSH in 1967.
Engineering company Peter Pfenningsberg GmbH from Düsseldorf launched Germany's first fully automatic washing machine on the market in 1951. The machine was still without a name when it made its appearance at the Constructa building trade fair in Hanover. But the exhibition was to prove memorable. The washing machine was presented for the first time as Pfenningsberg Constructa at the spring fair in Cologne in 1952. The machine with the characteristic porthole could clean 4.5 kilos of laundry in 75 minutes. The Constructa boasted yet another highlight in being able to prepare the required amount of hot water itself. This eliminated the need for a hot water connection as was necessary with other machines, making the [[History of the Constructa brand|Constructa]] more versatile in where it could be used. Every cycle could be extended, shortened, repeated or skipped as required by setting the program knob, thus allowing the degree of dirt to be taken into account optimally in each case. At the same time "''Operation of the machine (...) couldn't be easier and requires no specialist knowledge"'' as the advertising stressed.

The drum was produced from stainless Nirosta sheeting and designed so as to change direction of rotation every 15 minutes during a washing and rinsing cycle with 48 revolutions per minute. Because of the speed, a concrete base and four stone bolts were needed to anchor the fully automatic washing machine to the floor.<ref>BSH Corporate Archives, no signature, Constructa Document Folder, General Collection 1951-1958.</ref>

Nachricht im Original (Constructa - eine Waschmaschinen-Legende)
Die „Constructa“ war in den 1950ern der erste in Deutschland hergestellte Waschvollautomat. Dem Hersteller, der Firma [[Die_Geschichte_der_Marke_Constructa|<span style="color:#0080FF">Constructa Werke GmbH</span>]], gelingt so der Durchbruch. Mit 80 Prozent Marktanteil ist die Firma auch 20 Jahre später noch die klare Nr. 1 unter den Waschmaschinen-Produzenten Deutschlands. 1961 wird Constructa von Siemens übernommen und ist damit seit 1967 ein fester Bestandteil der BSH.
