The 69-Jährige see yourself in the obligation, if with Lerchner the “coining/shaping guidance figure” leaves the enterprise, continued to be called it in the report. Walter Lechler became 1972 member of the partner committee of the Elring GmbH and 1989 its chairmen.

At the end of July to ElringKlinger the slat with the conversion for 2011 more highly had put and counts - without consideration of the taken over gasket range of joy mountain as well as Swiss Hug group - with a plus from 12 to 14 per cent. The result before interest and taxes is to add superproportionally around 15 to 25 per cent. Also for the coming year wolf is positively been correct: “2012 become completely good”, said the manager. It will probably give no exorbitant growth rates.

 “Even if the market stagnated, we grow with the conversion organically however by five to seven per cent”. The margin wants to increase wolf in the next year further the level of before the crisis from 16 to 18 per cent. Because of the still less profitable acquisitions one will land however probably rather at the lower end the range, affirmed he. Zukäufe secure Martposition The integration of the gasket range of joy mountain as well as Swiss Hug group, which rested last as announced on the profitability of ElringKlinger, run according to statement of wolf well. A problem is however strong Swiss franc. Wolf explained, one wanted to reduce the load by the fact that one takes creation of value off from the country. A goal is it to only hold the creation of value in Switzerland which must be. Wolf with the “security of relevant know-how” justified the recent additional purchase, the assumption only some days ago announced of a 90-Prozent-Mehrheit at the group of firms of Baden-Wuerttemberg Hummel. The Hummel group is in the ranges tool technology and lightweight construction on the way and is already for quite some time an important business partner of ElringKlinger - however evenly also from the competitors.

“We did not want that a competitor said us the enterprise away-bought”, wolf. No assumption by BorgWarner Wolf gave a clear refusal to rumors over a threatening assumption: “The majority of ElringKlinger is at the family Lechler”. Both family trunks would have assured on the IAA to stand firmly to the investment. “That is not topic. We were addressed neither, nor we know something”, explained wolf.
