For Kurtz Ersa, the outstanding feature of 2014 is the 235-year jubilee. Our company was established in Hasloch am Main in 1779 with the construction of the hammer mill.

 

We want to retain this industrial monument and, by adding a museum and a conference centre, expand our history centre. We thoroughly enjoyed relocating our company archive to new premises and reappraising the history of the company with the chronicle entitled "From Eisenhammer foundry to Kurtz Ersa". We are very grateful to the author Dr. Robert Meier for his extensive research. The fact that the chronicle also deals with such delicate topics as forced labour and the Nazi period reflects our open approach to failings. Mistakes were made in the past and will also be made in the future. But, by confronting our past, we learn to minimise failings in the future and ensure that under no circumstances can they recur.

But never fear! The Kurtz Ersa Team is by no means focussed solely on the past. This edition of the Kurtz Ersa Magazine shows that we also take up the challenges of the present and relish the prospects of the future. We continue to consistently develop new products, adjust our corporate culture, streamline our processes and improve our internal communication and training system.

 

This Kurtz Ersa Magazine also contains further contributions on interesting customer projects. We very much appreciate the work of the companies who have become involved. Thanks to the industrial diversity of our product portfolio, the Kurtz Ersa Magazine can offer lots of ideas for new projects for our readers. 

 

Our jubilee year 2014 has got off to a very good start and it looks as if we are set to grow significantly this year too. We would like to express our thanks to our customers, our suppliers and of course also to our staff.

 

Happy reading - Good luck!

 

 

Rainer Kurtz
