In 2008 Mangelberger Electro-Technology GmbH won the Bavarian Export Prize through a special collaboration with McDonald’s. This partnership began in 1985 and by 2008 Main Distribution Board units with integrated energy management systems were installed in over 10 countries – from Germany and Ukraine to Israel.

In 2016 Mangelberger Electro-Technology GmbH received the German Foreign Trade Prize. The award was presented by Mr Hans Peter Wollseifer, President of the Central Association of Skilled Trades (ZDH), who said that ‘Individual production from Germany is currently again in demand all over the world. We must tap into this potential.’

And tapping into potential is precisely our motto. Mangelberger won the prize for its timely focus on the automated manufacturing of individualised products, and for the related development of innovative solutions in the context of Industry 4.0 and Big Data.

The prize was accepted by Alex Liegel, our Accounting and Controlling Manager. Through his pioneering work Alex contributed substantially to the optimisation of workflows – particularly with reference to the ethical requirements of the future – and to Mangelberger’s sustainable success.

Mangelberger won the Bavarian Medium-sized Enterprises Prize for 2017, with the jury of the European Economic Forum (EWiF) and the State of Bavaria acknowledging the exceptional automation and digitalisation strategy of management at Mangelberger Electro-Technology GmbH. The jury pointed out our constant innovation and improvement and our ability to find solutions, and that’s exactly what we’re aiming for in the future. 

Mangelberger won the Industry 4.0 Award in 2016, a prize that honours businesses who excel in implementing Industry 4.0 processes in production and manufacturing. But we don’t just do it because everybody does it; we do it to open up new horizons. For example, Mangelberger is cooperating with the Technical University of Munich in their neuro-imaging research. This unusual and incredible project aims to send direct commands to the production line via human thoughts. Imagine the potential! 

‘Men like Juergen Mangelberger are rare,’ according to The Week in Business, and they’re right. A boss in jeans, sneakers and a ‘Hard Rock Café’ t-shirt without his own office or his own secretary. Being different isn’t always easy, but it’s what we’re all about, and it makes for a positive and innovative company.

Harro Hoeflinger, Managing Director of the Harro Hoeflinger Group, has called Juergen Mangelberger the ‘Steve Jobs of machine construction’, recognising his passion for progress, the future and always pushing the boundaries of new technology. 

The University of Nottingham is studying the development of Mangelberger as one of six selected enterprises which provide an image of the 4th Industrial Revolution in Germany. In this, they are focusing on cyber-physical systems, Big Data quality and IoT – in connection with their effect on people. It’s an honour to be chosen for this awesome study.

The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is comparing developmental status of Norwegian firms to German enterprises, against the background of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Three so-called ‘High Level Leads’ are considered in this study: the Norwegian Ekornes ASA, Mangelberger and the Siemens Electronics Works in Amberg.

The result of the study: Mangelberger is on an equal footing with Siemens in many areas - and we’re even beating them in a few! Most importantly, this study is giving all companies involved some great new ideas.

Bavarian Premier, Horst Seehofer, mentioned us favourably in his government declaration of 2017. We were pretty delighted! And he got it right: we do our best for Bavaria (and Franconia) – just like our state does lots for us as an enterprise. Many thanks for your kind words!
