Machine factory Reinartz becomes part of the KAHL Group
New management team at Reinartz
With decades of experience in plant construction, the Neuss based machine factory Reinartz GmbH & Co. KG, a company with a long tradition, joins the internationally operating KAHL Group. The specialist in separation processes has more than 170 years of experience and will complement the group with its technological expertise and innovative strength. The partnership brings new strategic potential to the KAHL Group, particularly in the fields of alternative proteins, biomass processing, and mechanical drying.
Reinartz is one of the world's leading suppliers of screw presses, filtration systems, and separation technology. The company's plants are used, for example, in the extraction of high-quality vegetable oils, energy production from biomass, the processing of insect larvae into protein-rich press cakes, and in process engineering research. At the Neuss site, around 50 employees develop and manufacture customized solutions for a wide range of industries.
Reinartz will continue to operate under its own name and as an independent company. The location will stay the same, and all jobs will be retained. The primary objective of the investment is to leverage synergies in the areas of technology, purchasing, and sales while systematically increasing existing expertise. Within the KAHL Group, there are interfaces primarily with Schule Mühlenbau, Neuhaus Neotec, and Amandus Kahl - for example, in the fields of alternative proteins, oil pressing, and biowaste processing. The international sales network of the KAHL Group will help Reinartz enter new markets more quickly in the future.
New management team at Reinartz
Joining the KAHL Group brings about a change in the management of the machine factory Reinartz. Michael Moll is stepping down from his role as managing director at his own request but will remain with the company as a consultant and member of the advisory board. Niklas Stadermann and Artur Kühl, the newly appointed second managing director, will now make up the new management team. “With this merger, we want to boost our innovative power and market presence in the long term,” explains Niklas Stadermann. “Together with the KAHL Group, we want to develop new strategic partnerships, expand our distribution channels, and enter new markets.
In the KAHL Group, Reinartz will be part of a group of seven independently operating companies – in addition to those mentioned above, they include Devex, Heinen, Neo Montec, and Pruess. Together, they offer a wide range of industrial solutions: from feed mills, oat mills, coffee roasting plants, and food freezing plants to sophisticated extraction lines.
“Reinartz is the perfect addition to this portfolio,” explains Uwe Wehrmann, CEO of the KAHL Group. “Like all companies in our group, Reinartz is committed to values such as reliability, trust, and a long-term perspective. These values are the very foundation of a successful partnership in which we learn from each other and get better together.”
Through the integration of Reinartz, the KAHL Group once again sets an example of sustainable growth, technological variety, and a value-based corporate culture—in service to its customers worldwide.
