Looking back on 2010

After just single figure growth inflicted by the global economic crisis in 2008 and 2009, 2010 returned to normal again. Our turnover grew once again by almost 20%.

Our core turnover and largest source of earnings comes from our Rotary Lobe Pump with all the associated chopping technology products. We operate at an international level with these products in all the industrialized nations and work closely with our customers through our many subsidiaries and other sales partners. Our export share here in Germany is currently at 65%. Our new products and profitable agricultural machinery products also recorded above-average growth, especially for stainless steel tanks, Bioselect solids/liquid separation and the renewable resources Powerfeed entry technology. We are delighted to see that products from our renewable resources entry technology are increasingly being used in special niche industrial applications. In the next few years we aim to launch our agricultural machinery products onto the promising international market. Our present sales network provides us with the ideal structure to do this.

Over the past 8 years we have managed to triple our sales and we now aim to achieve the same growth rate for 20xx to match the previous years. However, our agricultural machinery sector, which includes alternative energy technology, is subject to certain market regulations which may have an impact on our sales. Our excellent annual performance has increased proportionally with our sales revenue.

In recent years, we have completely reorganized our premises and administration and brought in new machinery. In the coming years we aim to continue expanding our product range and reorientation. Our current resources provide us with the opportunity to pursue these goals.
