Hauhinco

What Hauhinco does

Hauhinco Maschinenfabrik GmbH is a German manufacturer of water hydraulic systems, founded in 1908 in Sprockhövel in the Ruhr region and operating today as a subsidiary of Hauhinco Holding GmbH (itself owned by US-based CALLB Investments LLC since 2020). The company designs and produces high-pressure plunger pumps (triplex EHP-3K and quintuplex EHP-5K series) and a complete water hydraulic valve portfolio, with pumps operating up to 575 bar and valves up to 800 bar for continuous 24/7 service in mining and heavy industrial environments. Its core technical differentiator is the use of water — rather than oil — as the hydraulic medium.

Hauhinco's product portfolio spans discrete components (pumps, valves, radial piston pumps) and engineered system solutions including high-pressure pump stations for longwall mining hydraulics, water spray pump stations for dust suppression, underground water treatment systems using reverse osmosis, customer-specific press controls and manifolds (with 100+ commissioned projects), and turnkey hydromechanical descaling systems for steel, stainless steel, and copper rolling mills. Project TIGER, the company's next-generation pump platform, represents a major R&D investment drawing on more than 50 years of pump experience and 30+ years of valve expertise.

The company generates revenue primarily through engineered hardware sales — pumps, valves, and complete systems — supplemented by installation, commissioning, maintenance, spare parts, training, and contract manufacturing services. Sales are handled through direct contact at the German headquarters, a network of 17+ regional agents across Africa, Asia, Europe, and Oceania, and a wholly-owned US subsidiary (HBT Group / Hauhinco LP in Evans City, PA, operational since 1981). Solutions are customer-specific with no public pricing, and Hauhinco's primary end markets are underground longwall coal mining, steel and metal production, and industrial press applications in aluminum, automotive, rubber, and wood.
