A company with tradition and future

Since the 1950s the name 'Hänel' has stood for innovative solutions in automated records and materials handling. Today we are one of the world's leading providers in the industry. Thanks to the continuous refinement of our products and software, the solutions we offer today will meet the requirements of tomorrow.

For all this technological progress, we are fully aware of our responsibility to the environment, and we always aim to achieve the highest possible environmental compatibility in our development and production processes.

Hänel was, for example, the first producer of vertical lift technology to develop an EcoDrive® system, which converts the kinetic energy of the descending extractor into electrical energy and feeds it back into the electrical supply system.

This is yet another contribution toward saving energy and protecting the environment.The maxim of our company founder, Gerhard Hänel, was ‘Never do things by halves; if a job's worth doing, it's worth doing well’ – an approach that defines our actions to this day. So we shall continue to develop efficient, ergonomic and space-saving storage solutions for your intralogistics and office organization needs well into the future.
