HUEHOCO GROUP<\/h2>History<\/span><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
\n\n

Join us on a short time travel through the history of the HUEHOCO GROUP. It all began in 1893 with the founding of a cold strip and panel coating plant in Wuppertal. Today, 130 years later, HUEHOCO GROUP is a global player in the finishing of metal products. And in between there are plenty of interesting events, further developments and innovations.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n\n

But what hasn’t changed in all that time is the mission with which we approach our work: As a family-run industrial company, we see ourselves as a partner to our customers. We confirm our responsibility for their success with our unconditional will to solve even complex problems.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>
