Curiosity, thirst for knowledge and inventive spirit have made the Endress+Hauser Group a world leader in measurement engineering and automation solutions. Now almost 60 years after the establishment of the company, the innovative drive shows no signs of abating. “The record 219 patent applications in 2010 were topped last year with 225, which shows that we are on the right track,” said Michael Ziesemer, COO of the Endress+Hauser Group. “Our unbroken powers of innovation give us confidence that we will continue to offer our customers the best possible solutions in years to come.”
Patents with a sustained and positive effect on Endress+Hauser’s business success are honoured every year at the Endress+Hauser Innovators’ meeting. This year in Maulburg, Germany, over 300 inventors met to celebrate the intellectual achievements and to acknowledge the winning projects.
The four ‘Patent Rights Incentive Awards’ went to teams of inventors at the production sites Endress+Hauser Conducta, Endress+Hauser Flowtec, Endress+Hauser Wetzer and Endress+Hauser Maulburg. Outstanding improvements in existing business processes were also honoured this year with awards to teams from Endress+Hauser Flowtec, Endress+Hauser Process Solutions and from Endress+Hauser Maulburg.
