Vom Installationsbetrieb zum Experten für Anschlusstechnik
Als Johann Wilfer im Jahr 1957 einen Handwerksbetrieb in Isny gründete, tat er das mit dem Ziel, Installationsprozesse zu vereinfachen und zu beschleunigen. Dieser Kerngedanke prägt die Firmenphilosophie der Simplex Armaturen & Systeme GmbH bis heute. In sechs Jahrzehnten wandelte sich das Produktportfolio, weg von vorgefertigten Heizungs- und Sanitärbauteilen hin zu hochwertigen Anschlussarmaturen und Heizungssystemen. Dabei zieht sich die Idee der Vereinfachung von Arbeitsschritten wie ein roter Faden durch die Unternehmensgeschichte. Entsprechend lautet das Simplex-Motto: „Einfach clever, clever einfach.“
Johann Wilfer goss 1957 das Fundament für den heutigen Unternehmenserfolg von Simplex. Seine Idee, effiziente Lösungen für Installationsbetriebe zu entwickeln, trug schnell Früchte. Bereits wenige Jahre später startete der Allgäuer Familienbetrieb mit der industriellen Produktion durch, die aus der Fertigung von ersten kleineren Serien gewachsen war. Mit der Erfindung der Gewindeeinschneiddichtung schließlich setzte Wilfer 1974 einen Meilenstein, der die weitere Unternehmensentwicklung entscheidend prägte.
Quantities in millions – in consistently high quality
The toolmaking and injection moulding engineering sectors at Simplex stand for continuous high quality. The machinery used has the most highly-polished technical equipment; with only a single tool, production can run into millions without wasting time on tool-changing – and without quality deviations! The very latest measuring instruments support regular quality testing procedures and guarantee maintenance of quality certification.
The extremely short preparation times using quick-clamping devices and the use of the newest information technologies (CAD/DAM-networking) ensure the greatest possible flexibility in manufacture. This also means reaction without delay is possible even to minor alterations in the production and an optimum course of manufacture can be guaranteed. Quality plus economy – with Simplex a matter of course!
