What JÄGER Group does

JÄGER Group is a privately held, family-owned industrial manufacturer headquartered in Hannover, Germany, controlled by Arnold Jäger Holding GmbH and currently in its third generation of family management with an active fourth-generation succession underway since June 2024. Founded in 1942 as a technical rubber distributor, the group has evolved into a diversified elastomer and plastics manufacturer operating across 17 subsidiaries and over 24 locations in Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, the USA, Canada, and China, employing approximately 1,300 people and projecting €264 million in revenue for 2025.

The group's core technology stack centers on elastomer formulation and processing: it operates an in-house rubber mixing plant for proprietary compound development, and applies compression molding, injection molding, transfer molding, extrusion, and vulcanization across rubber, silicone, thermoplastic, and combination products (rubber-metal, rubber-plastic, basalt composites). Its portfolio is organized into material combination products (DELTA & SIGMA conveyor systems, SPIRA® power sections, Silentium Drive belts, pump stators/rotors), green products (JetFlex® wastewater aeration, Cleartec® biofilm carriers, CLEARBOX® SBR systems, maritime solutions including bubble curtains and basalt scour/corrosion protection), standard rubber and plastic components (molded parts, profiles, O-rings, hoses, mats, stamped parts, semi-finished plastics), and the proprietary Flip 'N Seal® RV sealing system. The portfolio is backed by 100 registered patents, 20 trademarks, and certifications spanning ISO 9001/14001, IATF 16949, UL94V0, UL50E, FDA, ISO 10993, and GB38031-2020.

JÄGER generates revenue through a project-based, quote-driven B2B model serving agricultural engineering (Krone, Kverneland), energy technology including wind and solar (Vensys, SMA), mechanical and plant engineering (Jungheinrich, Linde MH, Miele, Alstom), environmental technology, maritime and offshore wind, and recreational vehicle manufacturers. Distribution runs through a decentralized direct-sales network of eight German locations plus international subsidiaries, supported by an 8,500-square-metre central logistics center handling over 5,000 shipments per month and a digital supplier portal. Supplementary revenue streams include exclusive European distribution of Futureway silicone foams, custom compound development, and supply chain management services.
