Curtiss-Wright opens new German office following recent acquisitions

Curtiss-Wright Corporation (NYSE: CW) today announced that its Industrial division has opened a new office near Munich to provide sales & technical support and customer service to its OEM customers and distributors in Europe.

The move follows Curtiss-Wright’s recent acquisitions of Arens Controls, PG Drives Technology and Williams Controls; and the merging of its existing Penny + Giles business into a newly formed Industrial group.  Together, these four businesses represent four powerful brands in the Industrial marketplace.

As a result of the mergers, Curtiss-Wright has consolidated its existing offices in Germany and moved to larger premises in Garching near Munich. The move will provide a more efficient administration process and service, with new orders being placed directly with Curtiss-Wright’s Industrial division in the UK. Orders will also be dispatched directly to customers from the company’s manufacturing facilities in the UK and US.

In addition, Curtiss-Wright can also increase its offering to incorporate products from all four brands, including by-wire shift controls, electronic throttle pedals, joystick controllers, motor control systems, power electronics and sensors for industrial, commercial and mobility vehicles.

Commenting for Curtiss-Wright’s Industrial division, Senior Vice President & General Manager Kevin Rayment says: “Europe continues to be a key and developing market for the company and we believe there is a real opportunity for products from all four brands to enter new markets. We are also sure that these operational changes will benefit customers and distributors alike.”

The address and contact details for the new Industrial division office are:

Schleissheimer Str. 91A, D-85748 Garching. Deutschland
