What BOECKER does

HAVER & BOECKER OHG is a privately held, family-controlled German industrial engineering company headquartered in Oelde (North Rhine-Westphalia) that has specialised in wire weaving since 1887 and in industrial packaging machinery for over 100 years. The company operates two main divisions, Wire Weaving and Machinery, supported by ten wholly-owned technology brand subsidiaries spanning screening (HAVER & BOECKER Niagara, W.S. TYLER, MAJOR WIRE INDUSTRIES), bulk storage and handling (IBAU Hamburg), mixing (Sommer), filling (Feige FILLING), packaging (BEHN + BATES, AVENTUS), palletising (NEWTEC BAG PALLETISING), and process digitisation (QUAT²RO). The product portfolio spans precision metal wire cloth, filter mesh and laminated panels (MINIMESH®, POROSTAR®, PLYMESH), industrial screening systems including ultrasonic and Flex-Mat® vibrating screens, electromagnetic shielding and architectural mesh, a full line of valve-bag and open-mouth packaging machines (ROTO-PACKER®, INTEGRA®/IV, ELEMENTRA®, RADIMAT®, RADIMAT-PATHFINDER®, AMICUS® with Smart Cell), ADAMS® powder-in-film-bag and SEAL welded-valve technologies, turnkey plant systems (OCTAPLANT®, SMART PLANT), analytical instruments (HAVER Bulk Density Tester, HAVER Airflow Tester®, particle analysis), and the QUAT²RO® digital platform for production control, batch tracking, visualisation, logistics, AI-based visual quality inspection, monitoring, weighing data, remote support, and analytics.

The business model combines one-time industrial equipment sales (machinery, plants, OEM wire mesh) with recurring aftermarket revenue streams including original parts and consumables (supported by a webshop), service and maintenance contracts (including a 24/7 hotline, commissioning, calibration, CHECK-UP programs, and customer training through the HAVER Academy), rebuilds and upgrades, turnkey EP project delivery, subscription-style QUAT²RO® digital products, and licensing income (notably TORCIT). Sales are conducted B2B via direct enterprise engagement, a global technology-brand distribution network, dedicated North American operations, and major industry trade shows. Customers are predominantly enterprise and mid-market industrial operators across twelve vertical segments, with mining and raw materials identified as the primary segment; other served verticals include cement, chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, building products, electrical engineering, energy and environment, hydrogen, architecture, agriculture, and mobility. Pricing is quote-based and customised per application; no public pricing exists. The company is an OHG (Offene Handelsgesellschaft, German general partnership) with no public listing, no disclosed funding rounds, and no parent company, consistent with a traditional German Mittelstand ownership model.
