Verschmelzung der deutschen Gesellschaften stärkt Effizienz und Kundennähe
MAPAL setzt Neuausrichtung in Deutschland fort
Die MAPAL Gruppe treibt die strategische Neuausrichtung ihrer Organisation in Deutschland konsequent voran. Nach der Umfirmierung der Unternehmenszentrale zur MAPAL Dr. Kress SE & Co. KG im Juni 2025 sowie der Neuaufstellung der Unternehmensgruppe als prozessgesteuerte Organisation geht das Unternehmen nun den nächsten bedeutenden Schritt: Zum 1. Mai 2026 werden die deutschen Gesellschaften der MAPAL Gruppe rechtlich in die MAPAL Dr. Kress SE & Co. KG verschmolzen.
“The merger is a logical next step in the transformation of our family business,” emphasises Dr Jochen Kress, President of MAPAL Dr. Kress SE & Co. KG. "We have consistently aligned our internal processes with the requirements of our customers. The legal merger now creates the necessary clarity and efficiency to provide optimum structural support for this alignment: We reduce organisational complexity and at the same time increase our speed of response with the aim of meeting our customers' requirements even better."
As part of the realignment, the German companies MAPAL WWS, MAPAL ITS, Miller, August Beck, Weisskopf Werkzeuge and WTE Präzisionstechnik are merging with the corporate headquarters MAPAL Dr. Kress SE & Co. KG. All locations will remain as production plants with their respective product portfolios, thus ensuring continuity in production, expertise and customer proximity.
Customers, suppliers and partners will benefit from the restructuring: a central contractual partner, harmonised processes and simplified communication - without compromising on the personal support or technical expertise that MAPAL has stood for for decades. Existing contracts and agreements will remain unchanged and will be transferred to MAPAL Dr. Kress SE & Co. KG as part of the universal succession.
“All of our organisational development measures follow a clear guideline,” emphasises Dr Kress. ‘We invest in structures, processes and employees in a targeted manner in order to make MAPAL competitive in the long term - as an independent family business with an international focus.”
