OUR COMPANY HISTORY

INNOVATIONS AND FORGING AHEAD

SINCE 1978

"Success is a consequence and must not be a goal."
(Gustave Flaubert, 1821 – 1880, French novelist)

Our prime aim since our firm was established in 1978
has been to continually improve the processes in all our
business units for the benefit of our customers, and simply for our
own satisfaction as well. In the last three decades we have unceasingly
refined the KOCH systems and services and thereby created the basis for the
success we enjoy today.
