While our story is forward-facing and focused on performance, agility, innovation and value, we also recognize history. We are no longer the company that was founded back in 1855 in Cologne, Germany, by members of the Nottberg family, but influences and experiences have carried forward through the years that have led us to who we are today.

Build. Solve. Evolve.
