For over 50 years, the HERRMANN Group has stood for an analytical and practically-oriented approach to existing, primarily technical problems.
The wealth of experience gained as a developer, manufacturer and Distributor spans industries and continents.
In the meantime, HERRMANN can boast as many patents and property rights as it has years of operation.
The subsidiary Herrmann Innovations GmbH was founded in 1990 as L-Tec to accompany Herrmann's new developments worldwide and to support them on the market.
Boasting development marketing and service in-house, a dedicated international team examines tried-and-tested, often forgotten, approaches and combines them with todayās requirements and modern technology.
By thinking in terms of complete systems, and including such considerations as sustainability and environmental awareness, highly relevant technologies are brought back to life and brought into the future.
