GKD – GEBR, owner–managed technical mesh weavers KUFFERATH AG, headquartered in Düren, Germany, has successfully pushed ahead in the financial year under review. In a challenging environment, this global technological leader for mesh-based media and system solutions succeeded in increasing its turnover by 6.4 percent to 84.2 million euros. All three business units – SOLID WEAVE (industrial mesh), WEAVE IN MOTION (process belt mesh) and CREATIVE WEAVE (architectural mesh) – recorded growth in sales in the fiscal year 2015.
“Thanks to massive investments into technology and locations, but also to new business models, we managed last year to continue creating the necessary conditions for growth,” says Dr. Stephan Kufferath, Managing Director of GKD, explaining the ongoing success of the enterprise. In addition to countless innovations and further developments in the company’s core business areas, the last financial year also saw the development of a global platform strategy and the continuous opening up of new markets. “With our high level of technological competence and our all-round systems know-how, we are a highly valued development partner and solutions provider for the industrial and architectural sector all over the world.”
