The proprietor-managed investment and consulting company Krupke Holding GmbH, Billerbeck, invested in a majority share of the well-established, family-owned company Hueber Getriebebau GmbH, Kirn.

The company which was founded in 1909 and taken over by the Hueber family in 1984 is specialised in production of special gearboxes for industrial applications. Furthermore the company is market leader for gearboxes for engine test beds for formula 1.

It will hold it permanently in its portfolio, further invest into the Kirn location and establish additional jobs to the totally 108 ones already existing there, which are to be created especially in the extension of the repair business – like for example in the wind energy industry.
