The year 2024 promises exciting new challenges and opportunities for FSM Frankenberger, especially in view of its upcoming participation in IFAT 2024 in
Munich, the world’s leading trade fair for environmental technologies.
Our entire team is already hard at work preparing for the trade fair to ensure that our presence there is a complete success.
After more than four decades of successful activity in the field of rainwater treatment, Steinhardt GmbH underwent a significant development on 01.01.2024: it merged with FSM Frankenberger GmbH.
This merger marks a significant milestone in the history of both companies. It took place against the background of their similar orientation and in view of current developments within the group of companies.
In practice, the merger of Steinhardt GmbH with FSM offers numerous synergetic advantages in a wide range of areas, which will increase efficiency within the merged company.
Stronger together: Steinhardt GmbH becomes FSM Frankenberger GmbH
On April 18, a meeting was held in Taunusstein with the district managers of Steinhardt products. The aim of this meeting was to get to know the new management team following the merger with Frankenberger and to discuss future projects and tasks together.
We hope that this exchange helped to strengthen cooperation and set the course for a successful future.
The VDI’s Entrepreneur Forum held on 3rd March in Taunusstein demonstrated that valuable expertise and insight is very much present on a regional level. Wolfgang Truss, Dipl.-Ing. and Director of the VDI Rheingau Regional Branch, is responsible for the organisation of the forum series. Steinhardt GmbH hosted the well-attended meeting during which guest companies gained not just an insight into Steinhardt’s product diversity but were also shown key factors leading to the success of the internationally active medium-sized business.
It was Steinhardt GmbH’s first appearance as a member of the internationally active ABIONIK Group in Chicago at the WEFTEC 2019, North America’s most important conference and exhibition for specialists involved in all aspects of water quality. A major goal was to intensify access to the American market. And a key factor here is the placement of innovative products such as HydroSpin Floatables Removal, adapted by Steinhardt GmbH for the North American market and distributed there in exclusive co-operation with partner GNA (Gabriel Novac & Associates Ltd.). HydroSpin components are easily modifiable to the local environment and operation is practically maintenance-free – two of the factors contributing to the product’s success – alone in Japan with 1,600 installations.
Within the scope of an AiF-managed project entitled HydroKavtec, the microbiological cleaning performance of a hydrodynamic cavitation systemdeveloped by Steinhardt GmbH will be researched and evaluated at the Technologiezentrum Wasser (TWZ) in Karlsruhe.
The background facts: In human medicine around 700 to 800 tonnes of antibiotics are consumed annually in Germany and in veterinary medicine the figure is even twice as high. The result is an increasing number of resistant bacteria that are released into the environment.
