On Tuesday, August 11th, 2020, there was a small surprise party for the managing director for the 30th anniversary of FLEXIVA. The event was originally supposed to take place as part of this year's summer festival, which unfortunately had to be canceled due to Corona.

Our automation manager gave a brief look back at the beginnings and development of the FLEXIVA. What began in an office with 3 people has developed into a growth-oriented company with currently 100 employees, 3 locations, its own wind turbine, several e-charging stations, a fleet of currently 8 company vehicles, a large photovoltaic system and a steadily growing customer base.

"Always oriented towards the market - never stand still."

This attitude of Mr. Hollnagel, the managing director of FLEXIVA, has shaped the company successfully for 30 years now.

We congratulate and say: "Keep it up!"
