Company

History

In June 1987, KTW K. Weißhaupt GmbH was spun out of the design office at that time 18 years existing. KTW specializes in individual solutions in manufacturing technology. With a lot of expertise and creativity we find special solutions in engineering, especially in load bearing, clamping and mounting devices. Based on our experience, we are particularly strong in the development and production of semi- and fully automated systems.

The new building was built in 2003 and is owned by the family. Thus, the KTW can develop and offer their design and manufacturing services.

After Nadine Weißhaupt was able to gain leadership experience in another company she entered 2008 in the family business. On her father's side she is now part of the executive management.

A quarter of a century was celebrated at KTW.

After the successful opening ceremony (with Prof. Martin Herzog as the guest speaker) KTW could be visited. Customers, suppliers, representatives of public life, employees and their family members were gathered and were delighted with all employees over the 25 year anniversary.
