In the 140th year since our great grandfather started the business in 1877, Böllhoff’s group vision of ‘Passion for successful joining’ was once again fulfilled in 2017.
2017 was another year of strong growth and our aim of a consolidated group turnover of over €600 million was reached in 25 countries and more than 40 subsidiaries.
Innovations in our fastener brands (e.g HELICOIL®); the strength of our automation assembly machines (e.g RIVSET®); and the ECOSIT®-service of over 200,000 articles from stock; supported the growth in all global markets.
Investments of more than €50 million in 2017, will be followed by another €150 million over the next two years on all continents. This underlines our passion for joining technologies and the overall positive development of global industries. The main challenges for 2018 are the shortage and cost increases on material, which must be managed fair and long-term oriented in the whole supply chain of suppliers, ourselves and our customers.
We strongly believe that with our strategy of supporting our customers globally with joining solutions, combined with having a family-owned, long-term culture, means that 2018 should be another positive one.
