[...]Berching, Germany How it all began... In the 1950s and 1960s, manhole covers in "painted steel" and "galvanised steel" were proven products of the HUBER company and the covers were mainly manufactured for water pipeline construction. At the beginning of the 1970s, the brothers Hans and Karl-Josef Huber, the company owners at the time, recognised the desire and need of many customers for a low-maintenance manhole cover that did not require maintenance work such as regular painting of the surface. The idea of using stainless steel for this purpose was born and was implemented on a trial basis. At that [...]

The efficiency and reliability of the ROTAMAT ® technology is even[...]
[...]Floods are a growing and serious threat. With rising sea levels and increasing weather extremes, the frequency and intensity of flooding is increasing worldwide. These natural disasters not only endanger human lives, but also cause considerable damage to infrastructure, property and the environment. Given this reality, it is crucial to take flood prevention measures and implement solutions such as flood-proof doors to minimise the risk and impact of flooding.

[...]Current situation In industrial production, products are typically manufactured from raw materials using water and external energy. In addition to residual and waste materials, used water and not inconsiderable amounts of surplus energy in the form of waste heat are usually generated. In addition to immediate reutilisation of the heat energy within the production process and/or direct discharge from the system via separate cooling systems such as cooling towers, larger amounts of heat are also discharged via the wastewater. Increasing demands on discharge quality requirements Particularly in[...]
