About Franz Gottwald
Shaping the future through tradition
In addition to preserving our traditional family-owned business and securing long-term economic success, promoting environmental protection and the associated development of products and services is one of our declared objectives.
The certification of our quality management system in July 1997 marked an important milestone and motivated us to continuously improve in this area. On October 21, 2003, we were certified for the first time in environmental management for resource-efficient and environmentally compatible products—further reinforcing our corporate philosophy.
Sustainability and environmental responsibility
Regular meetings within our environmental and quality management teams enable us to continuously identify opportunities for improvement and unlock hidden potential within our workforce.
As a corporate group based in northern Germany, we are deeply rooted in the Hanseatic tradition. Founded as an engineering office in 1930, the Gottwald Group today consists of forward-looking companies with more than 90 qualified and highly motivated employees.
As a wholesaler for sealing and vibration technology, dust extraction and filtration, hydraulics, and drive technology, we have been a reliable partner for high-quality industrial products for decades. In addition, we offer a sophisticated portfolio of future-oriented products covering the full spectrum of industrial technology.
