Hoffmann is celebrating its centenary in 2019. It is a good opportunity to look to the future, and to take a look back: Much of what makes the Hoffmann Group an expert system partner for quality tools today is derived from the company's history. That strong foundation is what has enabled us to achieve all that we have to date, and what will sustain our success into the future.

Full steam ahead

The family-led Hoffmann business has continually re-invented itself over the past 100 years: It has adapted to changing market conditions, anticipated new trends, and launched innovative products and services. As a system partner to industry, the Hoffmann Group continues to grow and develop, while remaining ever true to itself in spite of all the change. It has been helping to boost the productivity of its customers worldwide since 1919.

How the Hoffmann Group is preparing for the future

Based on the motto "Ever better" – embodied primarily by Franz Hoffmann himself – the Hoffmann Group works constantly to offer its customers ever more efficient and powerful products and services. The company is also utilising the opportunities offered by digitalisation in pursuing its goals – as a trader, a manufacturer, and a consultant. Optimised processes are speeding up delivery lead times for example. Intelligent tool management supports customers in production. The Hoffmann Group is also engaging with the latest technologies such as Additive Manufacturing and the associated challenges entailed by the processing of 3D printed components.
