Proven strength under a new name: The joint venture of Voith and Siemens which was founded in April 2000 will now be known as Voith Hydro. As before, we are a full-line supplier for advanced hydroelectric equipment, technology, and services to the renewable energy market. The shares of both partners remain unchanged.

More than 40,000 generators and turbines have been installed worldwide by Voith Hydro, positioning it as a leading manufacturer for clean and low-carbon power generation from water. This not only applies to traditional hydro power but for energy from the oceans as well.

The company's rich history dates back to 1867. And for over 100 years, hydro power plants all over the world have been equipped with machines from Heidenheim. Many of the these orignal operators are our customers to this very day.

With approx. 43,000 employees, more than 290 locations worldwide and annual sales of EURO 4.9 billion, Voith is among Europe�s largest family-owned companies. Voith is the reliable partner of key industries. Our paper machines cover more than one third of the worldwide paper consumption. We produce turbines and generators for the world�s largest hydro power stations. We manufacture modern drive systems for buses, railways, trucks, ships and industrial applications. We offer a highly diversified portfolio of technical services to our customers.

Now in our 142nd year of business, our family-owned status continues to free us from the moodswings of the stock market, enabling us to plan our activities long-term and with enduring effect. What counts for us are inventiveness, innovative power, sound knowledge and enthusiasm for technology: These are the driving forces of our success. Open-mindedness, the courage to take risks and the social commitment of our founder family and their successors characterize our corporate culture.
