From local supplier to specialist

Established as a local business in Kretzschau in 1990, HEGLA has since grown to become a supplier for the global market. The focus was initially on vehicle attachments, transport frames and supplier products for the main facility in Beverungen, Germany (North Rhine-Westphalia). Now the company specialises in the manual and automated storage of large panes, long-length storage systems and vacuum lifters for glass. In 2020, the company began selling the vacuum lifters produced here under its own name again. To further strengthen the business unit, the sales team was also expanded.
