The Wittur Group, with the operating entity ''Wittur Holding GmbH'', is a worldwide leading producer and supplier of elevator components. Founded 1968 in Germany, the group is today present with various subsidiaries in Europe, Asia and Latin America. The headquarter is located in Wiedenzhausen, between Munich and Augsburg. == History == Back in 1968, at the age of 26 Horst Wittur started the business by establishing 'Wittur Aufzugteile GmbH & Co.' in Wiedenzhausen. At first, the focus lay on the production of car doors as well as on trading with elevator components. However, in the course of company acquisitions and integrations the trade with externally produced elevator components was replaced by selling in-house produced parts. Even the international expansion had an early start. In 1977, the production plant Selcom S.p.A. (today ''Wittur S.p.A.'') was established in Colorno, Italy, followed by the plant Selcom Aragon (today ''Wittur Elevator Components S.A.U.'') in 1980 in Zaragoza, Spain. At the same time trade companies were introduced in countries such as the Netherlands, France, Australia and Hong Kong, and participations were acquired.〔(wittur.com ), Wittur History〕 The first footprint in Asia was set in 1995 by establishing the subsidiary Suzhou Selcom (today ''Wittur Elevator Components (Suzhou)'') in China. In the course of years the production plant in Suzhou, China was steadily enlarged and by now more than 650,000 elevator doors are produced there on a yearly basis (2013).〔(Elevator World India ), Issue 3, Volume 7, 2014〕 In 2000, Wittur gained a foothold on the South American continent by acquiring SOIMET (today ''Wittur S.A.'') in Argentina and establishing ''Wittur Ltda.'' in Brazil. Recent expansions concerning the production plants took place in 2009 in Krupina, Slovakia, and in 2010 in Chennai, India. On August 12, 2015 Wittur announced the initiative to merge with Sematic, a group of companies active in the elevator components business. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wittur」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
