With a worldwide workforce of about 13,800 employees and revenues in the amount of EUR 2.4 billion in 2007, A-TEC Industries AG is one of the leading industrial groups based in Austria.

The divisions are represented by strong international brands such as Austrian Energy & Environment, ATB Austria Antriebstechnik, EMCO Group, Dörries Scharmann Technologie and Montanwerke Brixlegg. Credit for the A-TEC Industries success story is due not just to strong growth and an aggressive expansion strategy, but also to a corporate philosophy that combines a clear vision of the future with integrity and a sense of responsibility.

The rapid expansion that is the trademark of A-TEC Industries is fuelled by robust organic growth and selective acquisitions in all its markets. In the past few years A-TEC Industries has developed into a diversified multinational group with a global network that holds leading positions in many of the markets it serves. This is due in no small measure to the expertise and strong industrial contacts of a highly experienced management team shaped by the founders and majority owners. Thanks to these strengths the management can be relied on to spot growth opportunities and potential synergies, boost group companies’ efficiency and cut costs.

A-TEC Industries AG was admitted to the prime market segment of the Vienna Stock Exchange on 1 December 2006.
