The Craemer Group, a specialist in metal forming, plastics processing and toolmaking, has commissioned its own wind turbine, underlining its commitment to a sustainable energy supply. With a hub height of 163 metres and an overall height of around 250 metres, the turbine is a prominent symbol of this transition and has been supplying green electricity to the company’s plastics injection moulding facility at the inter-municipal Aurea Industrial Park, close to the A2 motorway, since the beginning of the year. Craemer has now officially inaugurated the wind turbine in the presence of around 50 guests from politics and business, as well as business partners and employees.

We demand the highest quality from all our products and services. Our latest accolade: the Brose Quality Award 2024. The automotive supplier Brose has honoured us as one of their A-suppliers: for the high product quality of our metal parts and for more than 30 years of good cooperation.

At the end of 2023, Craemer GmbH (Craemer Group’s headquarters) had a good reason to celebrate:  District Administrator Dr Olaf Gericke, Head of the Building Department Dr Herbert Bleicher and Mayoress Karin Rodeheger presented the company’s Managing Directors and one of their Managing Partners with the planning permission to build a company-owned wind turbine at their site in Oelde. The approval in accordance with the Federal Immission Control Act was granted about five months after the complete application was submitted to the district building authority. “It is important for us to process applications quickly and issue planning permissions promptly. This is also a form of supporting economic development,”, says Dr Gericke. Craemer Managing Director Siegbert Geldner emphasises: “This was also made possible by bringing together all involved parties in a close-knit project group, which –under the leadership of architect Dr. Mathias Eisenmenger – met every two weeks.”

Craemer, specialist in metal forming, plastics processing and toolmaking with headquarters in Herzebrock-Clarholz, has set up a future-oriented plastics injection-moulding plant at the inter-municipal Aurea Industrial Park close to the A2 motorway. In the presence of around 200 guests from the worlds of politics, business and society, together with business partners and employees, the management inaugurated the new production facility on Friday, 10 February 2023. For the family-owned company, founded in 1912 and now in its fifth generation, this new site is a commitment to Germany, and in particular to North Rhine-Westphalia as a business location, as well as to sustainability.

Statement of the management: The European Green Deal aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union to zero by 2050 (net zero emissions). This has far-reaching consequences – also for the Craemer Group.

The headquarters of the Craemer Group in Herzebrock-Clarholz is expanding on a property of around 17 hectares (42 acres) in the Aurea interregional industrial area located in the municipalities of Oelde, Rheda-Wiedenbrück and Herzebrock-Clarholz. The land purchase was recently sealed. On their new premises close to the motorway A2 and around nine kilometres from their headquarters, the long-established family-run company intends to set up a plastic injection moulding facility to expand their production and storage capacities. Construction work on the project with an investment sum in the double-digit million Euro range is scheduled to begin this year.
