This year, the company Hans Lingl Anlagenbau und Verfahrenstechnik GmbH & Co. KG looks back on a company history of 80 years full of stability and changes, full of tradition and innovation. What began in 1938 in a bicycle workshop with a patent on the engobing of roofing tiles is today an internationally successful and diversified company group with more than 500 employees around the globe.

In the course of the open day, the numerous visitors were given the opportunity to look behind the scenes of the plant manufacturer by participating in one of the informative factory tours and to get some interesting impressions about the innovative working atmosphere at LINGL. Adults and children had a lot of fun and got in the right mood while enjoying the delicious food and the various celebration attractions including among others a sports car driving simulator, goal wall shooting and a balloon artist. The musical entertainment on the open day was ensured by the local orchestra “Musikverein Attenhausen“ playing traditional Bavarian folk music. Furthermore, thanks to the wide range of food and beverages, there was no lack of culinary delights so that no guest had to go home hungry.

LINGL was pleased with the enormous appreciation and the numerous interested persons and families that visited the successful event and spent nice and entertaining hours at LINGL.

The subject of service is becoming more and more important. Time is money – installations have to work and must not stand still because a spare part is missing. However, service is much more.
Regular checks of installations and practice-oriented trainings of the qualified staff in the plants are important preventive measures for a trouble-free production process. But in case of malfunction, a short response time ensured by a worldwide 24 hour service, competent troubleshooting via remote service or by the immediate assignment of technicians is also top priority. Reliable analyses of the processes and raw materials as well as the identification of modernization and optimization potentials are important points in a comprehensive service portfolio.
Due to the increasing importance of service, the magazine “Zi” has been focusing on the topic by creating the “Zi Best Supplier Award”.
Participating in the award ceremony which took place during the CERAMITEC fair on the occasion of the „Heavy Clay Day“, the whole LINGL team were pleased to be awarded first place as “Best Service Supplier”. More than 100 brick fabricating companies from all over the world had participated in the vote and elected LINGL as the company providing the best service in the business.
The award confirms the customer-oriented thinking and acting of the plant manufacturer and simultaneously it is an incentive to strengthen and expand even more the focus being on the customers in all business units.
The whole LINGL team would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank all voting participants for the positive assessment and the confidence put in LINGL. We will be glad to offer our customers our best services in future, too!
