Its product portfolio also includes dishwashers, washing machines and tumble dryers for commercial use as well as washer-disinfectors and sterilizers for use in medical and laboratory applications. Founded in 1899, the company has eight production plants in Germany, six others throughout Europe as well as one in China. Sales in 2022 amounted to € 5.4 bn.
