2k Service

What 2k Service does

2K Service GmbH is a privately held German industrial services group headquartered in Neum\u00fcnster, Schleswig-Holstein, with approximately 170 employees distributed across Germany and two locations in Slovakia. The group operates through three wholly-owned subsidiaries: TDK Technische Dienste Kleinschmidt GmbH (founded 1995, industrial and facility services), 2K Maschinenbau GmbH (machine construction, automation, proprietary PINFLOW deburring technology and ergonomic deburring workstations), and 2K CNC-Service GmbH (CNC and conventional machine tool maintenance, laser cutting, industrial air filtration, DGUV V3 testing, works-contract services). 2K Service GmbH itself, founded in 2010 as the parent, provides VdS-certified Sachverst\u00e4ndigenpr\u00fcfung (Klausel 3602) electrical inspections for fire-insurance compliance and fire protection consulting. The integration was deepened by the 01.01.2024 merger of 2K Maschinenbau into 2K CNC-Service.

The company's core offerings span proprietary technology, certified services, and hardware. Certified VdS Sachverst\u00e4ndige perform recurring Klausel 3602 and DGUV V3 electrical safety inspections mandated by fire insurers and German occupational safety regulations. CNC service technicians execute preventive and corrective maintenance on machine tools, supported by long-term service partnerships with major OEMs (INDEX, FFG Europe, Makino) and an exclusive service provider relationship with Danfoss Power Solutions. In-house manufacturing at Neum\u00fcnster produces the proprietary PINFLOW automated deburring system and modular ergonomic manual deburring workstations. Industrial air filtration units (Virus Cleaner VC 60 series, combining electrostatic and HEPA H13 filters) are distributed in Germany via partnership with Junker-Gruppe / LTA.

The business model is project- and contract-based B2B field service with no public pricing. Revenue is generated through four streams: recurring professional services (VdS / DGUV V3 inspection, machine maintenance), hardware sales (PINFLOW systems, deburring workstations, air filtration units), facility and industrial services under TDK, and contractually embedded works-contract (Werksvertragspartner) technician placements. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales led by certified technical experts (e.g., Managing Director Michael Krause, VdS Sachverst\u00e4ndiger Jan Rohwedder), with primary geographic focus on North Germany (Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg) and nationwide capability for VdS inspections. The customer base spans German Mittelstand manufacturers and large industrial enterprises, with the Danfoss exclusive relationship representing a notable concentration anchor. The company is bootstrapped (no external funding disclosed) and led by Managing Director Michael Krause.
