The history of aquatherm
aquatherm was founded in Germany in 1973 by Gerhard Rosenberg for the development, production and installation of floor heatings. At that time aquatherm was one of the three first suppliers on the European market.
In 1980 aquatherm developed the plastic pipe system fusiotherm® from polypropylene (PP-R (80)) for sanitary and heating installations. Up to now this innovation is the foundation stone for a steady growth.
aquatherm GmBH remains a family based business and comprises of 4 sites covering more than 68,000 square metres of research, process and manufacturing, warehousing and storage, tool manufacturing and in most instances covers all the facets of innovation to delivery.
The total workforce at all sites numbers over 500. Each year well over 44,000 km of pipes are manufactured and 85,000,000 fittings are produced, stored and dispatched.
Today, aquatherm is a globally acting company, present in 75 countries of the world and an undisputed market leader in many fields not just in polypropylene.
