60 Years of ElringKlinger Engineered Plastics

On Friday, July 24, 2026, ElringKlinger Engineered Plastics celebrated its 60th anniversary. To mark this special occasion, employees from the German locations, employees celebrating milestone anniversaries, former employees, and representatives of the company and group management came together to look back on six decades of company history and, at the same time, look toward the future.

The anniversary event honored the people who have shaped and advanced the company over the past decades. A special highlight of the program was the recognition of employees for their 25- and 40-year service anniversaries. In addition, the celebration provided an opportunity to reconnect with longtime colleagues and former coworkers and to share memories. The official program featured speeches by the management of ElringKlinger Engineered Plastics, the CSO of ElringKlinger AG, Dirk Willers, and representatives of the works council. The speeches addressed both the company’s development over the past 60 years and future opportunities and challenges.

In addition to the official program, tours of the facility offered interesting insights into the site’s development. The event was complemented by a varied supporting program featuring musical entertainment, a photo booth, a magic show, raffles, and a diverse selection of culinary offerings.
