About us
For more than 60 years, MICKENHAGEN GMBH & Co.KG has been successfully developing and manufacturing electric heating elements for industrial applications in the market. In addition to standard heating elements for various machines in plastic processing or die-casting technology, the company primarily manufactures custom-made special heating elements for various industrial sectors.
Management
In 1997, Eugen Mickenhagen decided to retire, marking not only the end of an era but also the beginning of a new chapter for the company. With great foresight, he passed the leadership of the company to the next generation.
Over the past 25 years, Nicole Mickenhagen and Achim Rittinghaus have carried the responsibility for the company with great dedication and strong collaborative efforts. Their commitment, expertise, and leadership skills have contributed to the continued successful growth and competitiveness of the company within the industry.
Now, the third generation is already poised to continue the tradition and success of the company. Vera Schmitt, will follow in the footsteps of Mrs. Mickenhagen and, alongside her father, Achim Rittinghaus, assume responsibility for the company. This ongoing family tradition and joint continuation of the company promise a promising future, ensuring the preservation of the values and experiences built over the years.
