WE HAVE THREE DIVISIONS AND ONE PASSION: SHIFTING THE LIMITS OF POSSIBILITY.
/ Whether welding technology, photovoltaics or battery charging technology − our goal is clearly defined: to be the innovation leader. With around
3,300 employees worldwide, we shift the limits of what’s possible - our record of over 900 granted patents is testimony to this. While others progress
step by step, we innovate in leaps and bounds. Just as we’ve always done. The responsible use of our resources forms the basis of our corporate policy.
