Hörmann Logistik GmbH, a Hörmann Group company, is a successful general contractor (GU) for the supply of intelligent and innovative intralogistics systems with 32 years experience. The Munich-based company is now acquiring a majority stake in the Austrian company Klatt Fördertechnik GmbH.
The company Klatt Fördertechnik, based in Neumarkt at Lake Wallersee, has developed into a well-known manufacturer of conveyor systems in its 19 years of being in business. »With this merger, we are strengthening our core competencies and strategically expanding them,« emphasizes Steffen Dieterich, Managing Director of Hörmann Logistik. His CEO colleague Oliver Vujcic adds: »For both companies, there are many synergies for ambitious growth«.
While Hörmann Logistik concentrates on project planning and implementation of general contractor projects, Klatt Fördertechnik focuses on innovations and customized conveyor solutions. Thus both companies strengthen their expert status in the intralogistics sector and offer their mainly medium-sized customers excellent solutions as competent and reliable partners throughout Europe. »We are looking forward to a successful future with Hörmann Logistik,« says Peter Klatt, Managing Director of Klatt Fördertechnik.

Klatt Fördertechnik convinces as a full-range supplier of conveyor technology for pallets, containers, cartons and custom-made products with imaginative designs and proven products in the premium segment.
Klatt Fördertechnik, sets high standards with, for example, its toothed belt technology in the roller conveyors of the pallet conveyor system, which is characterized by low noise emission, low maintenance requirements and high availability. »Automation is the focus,« emphasizes Peter Klatt. Klatt Fördertechnik has a unique selling point in air baggage handling with a patent-pending system for automatic baggage alignment.
