AN ALLIANCE WITH THE FUTURE:

INNOVATION

AT BÖLLHOFF

Innovations are created by people. Good ideas, pioneering solutions and
innovative products are however rarely conceived behind closed doors.
At Böllhoff we are certain: Networking people is the key to success. It is
only by exchanging ideas with others that excellence can come about.
Jointly challenging the status quo, thinking through initial ideas and
changing perspectives – that is the approach applied at Böllhoff.

It gave rise to many new products and services in 2018. The Innovation
Forum allows us to incorporate our customers in the innovation process
early on. New solutions such as ready2_rivet and ECOBIN came about in
®
close cooperation with selected partners. Developments like HITSERT
Screwlock and ECOPORTAL are our response to demands made by a
changing market. See below for examples of milestones from our
innovation management system.
