| AS Aufzüge AG acquires Henseler Aufzüge AS Aufzüge, a subsidiary of the Schindler Group, has acquired Henseler Aufzüge and its associated affiliates from the Henseler Brothers. The Henseler Group is an innovative, successful, medium-sized company that has made a name for itself mainly through its unique elevator technology. No job losses are foreseen as a result of the transaction and the company's headquarters and production site at Küssnacht am Rigi will be maintained and expanded. Henseler Aufzüge employs over 150 people and is the owner of the unique 'Magic' elevator system, which holds several international patents thanks to technology that requires very low headroom and allows the elevator to be serviced from inside the car. 'Magic' therefore offers major advantages in both new buildings and in existing buildings which are fitted with new elevator systems. The company headquarters, competence center and production facilities are to remain in Küssnacht am Rigi. The expansion will be completed by the end of 2012 as part of a planned increase in production capacity. write your comments about the article :: © 2012 Construction News :: home page |
