STRONG BY TRADITION

PIONEERING SPIRIT
SINCE 1901

OTTOKIND - the traditional company from Gummersbach

What we take for granted today was once brought into the world by courageous, curious and assertive pioneers. One of them was Otto Kind. He was a pioneer in the improvement of work processes in retail and at workplaces in factories and offices.

His vision was to create high-quality working environments in which people could work effectively, efficiently and healthily. This vision has continued at OTTOKIND for over 120 years.
