30 years of precision - KLINGEL celebrates its company anniversary

Pforzheim, 01 July 2016. In this year, KLINGEL medical metal GmbH is celebrating its 30th company anniversary. In 1986, Helmut Klingel did not start his business in a garage, but like some other global players, it was also a two-men company. Since then, the specialist for high-precision components made of materials that are hard to machine has grown continuously and is one of the leading manufacturers of metal products for medical technology, measuring and control technology and aerospace. With the employees of Josef Ganter Feinmechanik GmbH in Dauchingen, which it acquired at the beginning of the year, KLINGEL has about 300 employees in two locations today.

"In the last 30 years, we have succeeded in developing and successfully implementing numerous product and process innovations together with our customers. This has made us an important partner and original equipment manufacturer, and we can build on close customer and business relationships, some of which are decades long", says Thomas Kroyer, managing partner of KLINGEL medical metal GmbH, describing the positive development and success of the company.

Of course, even after 30 successful years, KLINGEL does not want to rest on its laurels, but continues to innovate. At present, the focus is primarily on the medical technology segment, which is very demanding, also with regard to its regulatory requirements. In order to continue the growth strategy pursued thus far, KLINGEL is not only investing heavily in its plant park, but also in new talents. With a vocational training quota of over ten percent, KLINGEL has been actively and sustainably counteracting the threat of a shortage of skilled workers for years.
