OF EXPERTISE
What does it mean for Speckenheuer to be better than yesterday? It's about having a genuine interest in ongoing development. Professionally, technically, but above all interpersonally. Only when everything is in balance, internally and externally, does a collaboration become a partnership. Speckenheuer has been following this principle since 1946 and produces sprockets and gears at its site in Eslohe. Customers therefore benefit from decades of product and industry experience, but in particular from a passion for the job.
Excellent products are characterized by the fact that they do not attract attention because they function perfectly for years. That's exactly what you get when you choose Speckenheuer products.
PASSION FOR SOLUTIONS
Speckenheuer creates a friendly and supportive environment for employees and customers in which the development of ideas and cooperation are encouraged. Both internally and with our external partners, we work together on solutions that make our customers successful.
SUSTAINABILITY FOR A GOOD FUTURE
At Speckenheuer, we think sustainability at very different levels: We want to create sustainable customer relationships through customer contact that is based on partnership. Above all though, it is in production that Speckenheuer uses sustainable energy so that the end result is and remains fair for everyone.
HUMANITY, TEAM SPIRIT
AND AMBITION
The reason why Speckenheuer has been delivering quality that is valued by customers all over Europe since 1946 is our employees and our shared commitment to be a little better tomorrow.

ACTING FOR
THE FUTURE
“At Speckenheuer, we take responsibility for our actions: We have always placed great value on environmental awareness and resource-saving measures.
We were already acting ecologically before anyone else had even thought about it. The energy for our production has come from wind, solar and hydroelectric power for over 20 years. As a matter of course, we recycle all raw materials and add them back to the value chain. This leaves a minimal carbon footprint for our products. ”
