Kaeser Kompressoren is celebrating its centennial year. Established in 1919 as a machine workshop in Coburg, Germany by Carl Kaeser, Sr., the company has grown into a leading compressor manufacturer and global compressed air systems provider.
Kaeser began manufacturing reciprocating compressors in 1948. Under the leadership of the founder's son Carl Kaeser, Jr, Kaeser introduced the Sigma Profile rotary screw airend in 1975 which greatly advanced energy efficiency in compressed air systems. Launching the PC-based Sigma Control compressor controller in 1998 and introducing the comprehensive Sigma Air Manager in 2001, Kaeser led the industry in modern controls, paving the way for the integration of compressed air systems with Industrie 4.0 and advancing the industrial Internet of Things (IoT).
Today, Kaeser has over 6000 employees around the world.
A special 100 year anniversary website has been established to share more insight into Kaeser's rich heritage and the celebrations around the world. Visit www.kaeser-tradition-innovation.com/en.
