Traditions in mechanical engineering

 
The company "S+S Armaturen GmbH & Co. KG" continues 150 years of tradition in Magdeburg's machine and valve construction on veritably historical ground. In 1885 die "POLTE Armaturen-und Maschinenfabrik" had been founded here. After World War II and reconstruction the state-owned Armaturenkombinat with the name "Magdeburger Armaturenwerken" (MAW) established its head office there.
