Siempelkamp Group on course for success: Order intake of EUR 855.0 million in 2021

Krefeld, February 14th, 2022 - The Siempelkamp Group looks back on a successful business year 2021: With a record order intake of EUR 855.0 million, the company clearly exceeded its previous year's order intake of EUR 552.7 million. Siempelkamp's expertise for excellent technologies and sustainable concepts is confirmed in all areas.

With its business units Machinery and Plants, Casting Technology, and Nuclear Technology, the Siempelkamp Group recorded an extraordinarily good business year 2021 and shows strength in the context of the overall economic conditions. "Our realignment in the area of sales, process organization, and global manufacturing excellence, which was initiated in 2020, has proven its worth in all areas and has born fruit in 2021," said Dr. Martin Stark, CEO of the Siempelkamp Group.

Siempelkamp positioned itself successfully in particular in its core market, the wood-based panel industry. Both long-standing existing customers and new customers worldwide decided in favor of Siempelkamp's overall plant competence and technological know-how. The Group was also able to achieve numerous sales successes in the competence fields of metal forming presses and composite presses. In total, 24 large-scale plants were ordered across all areas.

Customer proximity, resource efficiency and digitalization
Siempelkamp's core competence of realizing machines and plants as complete solutions tailored to the customer's needs is recognized worldwide. Especially in the newly established production and development department, cross-group innovation teams are dedicated to the development of future-oriented solutions for the respective markets. 

Within the wood-based panels industry Siempelkamp continues to push forward the realignment of board production. Climate change and the scarcity of resources require solutions for the use of alternative raw materials. Depending on their local raw material supplies and their market situation,
wood-based panel producers can resort to new, resource-saving processes.
The company's innovation concept focuses on the topics of environmental technology and recycling. 

In the area of digitalization Siempelkamp solutions also meet with great demand. For example, the company provides a comprehensive digital product portfolio which increases the cost efficiency of
customers and optimizes product quality.
Siempelkamp was also able to initiate a digital turnaround in the casting technology segment: The melting process and the dismantling concept were optimized, processes were rethought. For example,
the Krefeld-based world market leader for hand-mold casting solutions is digitalizing its entire furnace operation.
The digitalization of crucible induction furnaces of this magnitude and depth of detail is new and sets new standards in the foundry industry - ultimately also to secure Germany as a production location. 

2022: Worldwide development and production network, global manufacturing control, resource efficiency
In 2022, the Siempelkamp Group will continue its successful path of implementing new processes and investing in its realignment. "Our global production network with locations in Germany, Italy, the Czech Republic, and China is characterized by the idea of efficiency as well as our commitment to customer proximity and top quality. Our concept of global production management, which we launched in 2020, is having a positive impact here. On the one hand, in a diversified market we provide precisely the support that is tailored to the raw material supplies and the needs of our customers. On the other hand, plant operators benefit from a holistic concept which ensures quality and efficiency in all areas from the use of resources to logistics.” says Samiron Mondal, Managing Director of Siempelkamp Maschinen- und Anlagenbau GmbH.

A clear commitment to responsibility and sustainable design of society and its industries will continue to be a focus of Siempelkamp's corporate strategy in the business year 2022.
