Hausmann + Haensgen GmbH & Co. KG

What Hausmann + Haensgen GmbH & Co. KG does

Hausmann + Haensgen GmbH & Co. KG is a German technical trading and light-manufacturing company specializing in industrial drive technology and mechanical components, headquartered at Oumunde 4, Bremen. Founded in 1946 and operating for approximately 75 years, the firm distributes more than 200,000 drive and conveyor technology products—bearings, couplings, linear technology, sealing, lubrication and vibration-control components—drawn from premium partner brands and augmented by four proprietary Eigenmarken: hakon (shaft-hub connections), hatorq (safety couplings), habelt (belt tensioning devices) and H+H Maschinenfüße (machine feet).

The company combines distribution with in-house manufacturing of custom turning and milling parts, processing of hardened precision shafts and guides, and pre-assembly of subassemblies. It complements product supply with engineering support via an in-house technical office (calculations, design assistance, CAD data, calculation programs), a certified maintenance partnership with SKF, condition monitoring and alignment services, technical training, custom stocking and logistics concepts, and a 24h emergency breakdown service. A digital layer—IT24 Online-Portal, e-catalogs, e-learning and the antriebssaetze.de blog—supports the traditional inside/field sales motion.

Revenue is generated through one-time product sales (component distribution and own-brand products), contract manufacturing and professional services (consulting, condition monitoring, maintenance partnerships, custom stocking). The go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, with named inside-sales contacts (Mark Schernewsky, Anton Büchl) plus a field sales team. The customer base is exclusively B2B (no sales to private individuals), segmented primarily into food and consumer-goods manufacturers and industrial maintenance departments, with an Electric Motors vertical listed as forthcoming. Ownership is concentrated in the founding families and management (Managing Directors Ulrich A. Haensgen and Tineke Scheler); no venture capital or institutional investors are evidenced.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• SKF: Global bearing and rotating equipment manufacturer of which H+H is a Certified Maintenance Partner. Comparable as a drive-technology supplier to the same industrial maintenance customers, though at much larger scale and as a manufacturer rather than distributor.
• McMaster-Carr: U.S.-based industrial supplier with a vast catalog of maintenance, repair and operations products. Comparable as a one-stop industrial technical distributor serving maintenance customers, but operating at a fundamentally larger scale and via a digital-first model.
• Schaeffler Group: Global manufacturer of bearings and linear motion products (INA, FAG brands) serving industrial customers in Germany and worldwide. Comparable on product categories (bearings, linear technology) and target customers, though operating at vastly greater scale.
• Bosch Rexroth: Global manufacturer of drive and control technologies (linear motion, hydraulics, gear tech) serving industrial OEMs and maintenance customers. Overlaps with H+H's drive technology, linear technology and couplings categories, though as a much larger portfolio player.
• RS Components: Global industrial electronics and components distributor serving maintenance, OEM and industrial customers. Comparable as a multi-category technical distributor targeting industrial buyers, but operating at vastly larger scale and with broader SKU coverage than H+H.

Direct peers

• Würth Industrie: German B2B industrial supply specialist within the Würth Group, serving industrial customers with technical products and value-added services (kanban, vending). Closely comparable to H+H's distribution-plus-service model with a German industrial customer base.
• igus GmbH: German manufacturer and direct distributor of polymer bearings, energy chains and drive components. Comparable as a German drive-technology specialist combining proprietary products with direct industrial distribution, overlapping strongly with H+H's bearings and linear technology categories.
• norelem: German manufacturer and standard parts supplier focused on machine elements, drive technology and clamping elements for industrial customers. Comparable to H+H as a German technical specialist combining proprietary standard parts with engineering support and direct distribution.

Emerging players

• KHK Antriebstechnik: Specialist German distributor of power transmission components (gears, gearboxes, drive technology). Closely comparable niche focus on drive technology distribution for industrial customers, though smaller and more product-only than H+H's service-led offering.

Regional players

• Ehrlich Industrievertretung: Small German industrial sales representative/distributor focused on drive technology and mechanical components. Comparable in size, niche focus and regional B2B model to H+H, illustrating the fragmented landscape of independent German drive-technology distributors.
