This year, Dürkopp Adler Romania is celebrating 25 years of productivity, quality and success. Thus, the most important production factory for parts and components in the Dürkopp Adler Group has played an essential role in the success story of the entire Group.

Dietrich Eickhoff, Managing Director of the Dürkopp Adler Group took the opportunity to address his personal congratulations and words to the employees: "I thank you all for what you have achieved in the last 25 years - and I mean every single member of the entire Dürkopp Adler Romania team. 1995 was the first time when we visited Romania to find a new strategic production facility for the Group. At that time it had been deliberately decided to build a brand-new factory with modern production technology and excellent workforce. ” In 1997, S.C. Dürkopp Adler s.r.l. was founded in Sângeorgiu de Mures, Romania and continously developed - a wise decision, as we know today.
