Wittmann Kunststoffgeräte Auxiliary Equipment

Wittmann Kunststoffgeräte GmbH is a global leader in the manufacturing of auxiliary equipment for the plastics industry. Founded by Dr. Werner Wittmann in Vienna, Austria, the brand has built a reputation for high-precision temperature controllers, flow controllers, and material handling systems. The company is particularly well-known for pioneering automated solutions that increase efficiency in injection molding processes.

Over the decades, the brand expanded its reach through strategic acquisitions, most notably the 2008 merger with Battenfeld Kunststoffmaschinen, forming the Wittmann Group. This integration allowed the company to offer complete production cells, including injection molding machines and robots. While the headquarters and primary research and development remain in Austria, the group operates production facilities in several countries, including Hungary, the United States, and China, to serve its global customer base.

As of 2026, the Wittmann Group remains a family-owned enterprise, with the Wittmann family maintaining ultimate control. This independence has allowed the company to consistently invest in Industry 4.0 technologies and sustainable plastics processing solutions without the short-term pressures of public stock markets.
