The strong values and principles of a family company shape the corporate culture at Endress+Hauser.
At Endress+Hauser, the world of female engineers reveals remarkable achievements – and portrays inspiring stories about dedication, skill and creativity. Six women explain how their jobs set an example for diversity and equal opportunity in technical professions.
Raw material scarcities, intermediate product shortages, transport route disruptions: global supply chains are creaking and stuttering. How can customers still be supplied reliably?
As Corporate Director of Supply Chain, Oliver Blum and his team ensure that the three million sensors and systems supplied by Endress+Hauser every year reach customers around the world quickly and reliably.
Changes are taking place at the top of Endress+Hauser at the beginning of 2024. Klaus Endress will relinquish his duties as President of the Supervisory Board. He will be succeeded by CEO Matthias Altendorf. Taking over the reins of the Group will be Peter Selders, currently Managing Director of Endress+Hauser Level+Pressure.
Endress+Hauser could still be flourishing in a hundred years’ time. And the family could still bear responsibility without involvement in the day-to-day business. Klaus Endress, President of the Supervisory Board, and Matthias Altendorf, CEO of the Group, talk about the past and future of the family-owned company.
Endress+Hauser looks back on seven eventful decades It was an unlikely pair that came together in 1953 to create a company: on one side, the Swiss engineer Georg H Endress, just 29, and on the other, the German Ludwig Hauser, 58, head of a cooperative bank. But the two complemented each other perfectly. The vision and drive of one was as important for success as the prudence and experience of the other.
Nearly every Endress+Hauser instrument is developed with the help of computer simulation. That not only leads to outstanding product characteristics but also takes the innovation process to a new level.
When Endress+Hauser began building a centralized instrument database 20 years ago, the Internet of Things was still a distant vision. Michael Herzog, a founding father of the Common Equipment Record, explains how it came into existence and why the huge volumes of data are a genuine treasure trove today.
