Huber’s market growth is being supported by doubling the production capacity at the Offenburg production site. Construction work on new production facilities and an administration building have already started. Furthermore, the Supervisory Board of Peter Huber Kältemaschinenbau AG agreed to and adopted the suggestion of the Board to acquire the company “Van-der-Heijden Labortechnik GmbH”.

With the acquisition of the Dörentrup (North Rhine-Westphalia) based manufacturer of circulation coolers and system separators (water-water heat exchangers), the product range at Huber has been expanded once again. Van-der-Heijden Labortechnik GmbH has established itself particularly in the cooling of analytical instruments and systems and has a global client base. Along with an extensive range of high-grade standard products, Van-der-Heijden’s particular strength lies in the area of special designs. Customers are provided with comprehensive advice and individual configurations or customised solutions to master their temperature control tasks.

Daniel Huber explains why Van-der-Heijden Labortechnik GmbH is such a good choice: “Their product portfolio complements the portfolio of our group. In analytics and when it comes down to the cost-effective dissipation of process heat, Van-der-Heijden is already one of the best. The products are of high-quality and have been successfully placed on the market. The operations buildings are functional, based on ecological principles and are in great condition. The company was founded more than 40 years ago and is successful in the market - a generational transition is imminent. The chemistry is right: The people and the corporate philosophies fit each other”
