Optiflex

What Optiflex does

Optiflex is a privately held German industrial fluid engineering company founded in 1989 and headquartered in Siegen, with a second branch in Sinn. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary Optiflex Drucklufttechnik GmbH (founded 2011), it delivers hydraulic and compressed air (pneumatic) products, services, and engineered system solutions to industrial customers in the Siegerland and Lahn-Dill-Kreis regions. The core offering spans custom hydraulic power units (Hydraulikaggregate) built from components sourced from manufacturers such as Bosch Rexroth, Parker, HYDAC, and ATOS; a full hydraulic components portfolio (pumps, motors, valves, cylinders, accumulators, fittings, gauges); technical hoses and ready-to-use hose lines; complete filter systems and filter elements (Filtration Group, HYDAC, STAUFF, Pall, Parker, Bosch Rexroth); and compressed air systems including screw and piston compressors, pneumatic components (SMC valve islands), and containerized turnkey solutions.

The business model combines hardware distribution, on-site service, rental, and training. Revenue streams include product sales of hydraulic and pneumatic components, 24/7 on-site service revenue (UVV inspections per DGUV regulations, maintenance, installation, commissioning), a rental park for hydraulic and compressed air equipment, and paid technical training seminars (e.g., EUR 966 for a 3-day hydraulic basics course, EUR 651 for proportional hydraulics). Go-to-market is sales-led via internal and external sales teams at both locations, supported by a 24/7 e-commerce platform with over 120,000 articles and a fleet of approximately 12 mobile workshop vehicles providing on-site hose fabrication and emergency repair across the region. Approximately 40 employees serve a primarily industrial customer base in manufacturing, production, and mobile equipment operations.

The company is family-owned, governed by Managing Directors Philipp Müller (sales, production, IT) and Lukas Grunert (plant engineering, service, effective January 1, 2024), with Jochen Kill as managing shareholder of the Drucklufttechnik subsidiary and Hartwig Müller as a senior shareholder. Optiflex has accumulated regulatory and quality credentials including ISO 9001, CrefoZert creditworthiness certificates (2024 and 2025 for both entities), VTH specialist company certification for hydraulic hose lines, Bosch Rexroth Authorized Partner status, 11 DGUV 113-020 certified inspection personnel, and CSE Certified Safety Engineer designation. Awards include the Ingersoll Rand Best Performer recognition and Familienfreundliches Unternehmen certification (first recertification scheduled for 2026).
