Pepperl+Fuchs
Brand description
In 1945, Walter Pepperl and Ludwig Fuchs opened a small radio repair shop in Mannheim, Germany, which they developed based on their ingenuity, entrepreneurship, and self-sufficiency. They turned their accumulated experience into new ideas and enthusiastically developed subsequent products for their customers. This approach resulted in the invention of the proximity sensor. This invention was the first important milestone in the company's successful history. Today, Pepperl+Fuchs is known to customers worldwide as a pioneering and innovative company in areas such as explosion protection for electrical installations and sensor technologies. It always focuses on customer requirements. The passion with which it dedicates itself to automation and the groundbreaking technologies it possesses allow for fruitful collaboration with customers — both today and in the future. The company recognizes market demands and develops appropriately tailored solutions based on them, which it then integrates with customers' processes.
