160 Years of History: Technological Continuity as the Foundation for New Industrial Processes

As a specialist in hermetically sealed pump technologies, the company is aligning its strategy to technically enable new industrial applications.

Long-term leadership perspective and entrepreneurial continuity
HERMETIC has been managed for generations as a family-owned company by its managing partners Nicolaus Krämer (Managing Director Operations) and Sebastian Dahlke (Managing Director Finance and sales). The company’s entrepreneurial orientation is geared toward stability, technological substance and sustainable growth. Technological expertise, application experience and reliability guide business decisions and ensure their long-term industrial viability.

Focus on demanding industrial applications
On this basis, the corporate strategy focuses on industrial applications in which safety, reliability and process stability are key criteria. The aim is to further strengthen the company’s position as a specialist in sealless pump systems while preparing the organization for the future.

Through the targeted further development of its portfolio, HERMETIC specifically addresses applications in the chemical industry, process industry and energy sector that are shaped by increasing requirements for emission prevention, operational safety and efficiency, as well as modularity. In these segments, the company acts not only as a component supplier, but also as a long-term technology and development partner throughout the entire project and plant life cycle.

Technological development with a clear application Focus
A central element of the strategic orientation is the continuous expansion of technological capabilities. HERMETIC canned motor pumps cover a broad range of applications — from cryogenic temperatures to high-temperature and high-pressure applications. Modular concepts, standardized performance grids and extensive engineering expertise make it possible to reliably support established processes while also technically safeguarding new applications.

Investments in the location and implementation capabilities
In parallel with market and technology development, HERMETIC continuously invests in expanding its Gundelfingen site. Extensions to production and testing capacities, modern manufacturing structures and high-performance test fields form the basis for demanding customer projects as well as standardized series solutions.

The clear commitment to Germany as a business location and the expansion of research and development are integral parts of the company’s long-term strategy.

These investments strengthen the company’s industrial implementation capabilities and ensure its ability to develop, test and qualify complex pump systems under real operating conditions — particularly for safety-critical applications.

Corporate culture and employer attractiveness
As a family-owned company, HERMETIC attaches central importance to corporate culture. In a companywide values process, fundamental attitudes that have shaped the company for decades were sharpened: reliability, down-to-earthness and the joint solving of demanding technical challenges.

This cultural work is accompanied by concrete measures in leadership, collaboration and employee development. International employer awards, including Great Place to Work, as well as regular employee surveys serve continuous development and the long-term retention of qualified specialists.
