In focus – Hidden champions of the Ruhr region on WDR television

On 5 September, we were featured on the WDR programme Lokalzeit Ruhr, Dortmund and Düsseldorf under the heading ‘Finally not last, where the Ruhr region excels’ as a positive example of the region's strengths. The television report was accompanied by a radio feature in which our employees provided insights into production operations and everyday working life.

Especially in times when the Ruhr region is often associated with issues such as unemployment and structural change, we are delighted to send out a positive signal: our region is also home to successful companies and innovative solutions. As a ‘hidden champion’ of the Ruhr region, we have been selected to show that here, in the heart of this region, there are numerous market leaders who set standards both nationally and internationally.

This media attention once again confirms our position as one of the leading companies in our industry, characterised by innovation, quality and continuous growth. We are delighted about the recognition of our work and see it as an incentive to continue making an active contribution to the success of the Ruhr region in the future. The region is more than just a location for us – it is a driving force for progress and success, and we are proud to be part of this development.
