Isn’t it incredible how quickly time flies?
It seems only yesterday that it was in its infancy, yet this year EPUTEC Drucklufttechnik GmbH is celebrating its 20th anniversary. And while German companies “survive” for only 12 years on average, this Bavarian family business has successfully bucked the trend and established itself in the B2B market with its compressed air solutions.
Melanie Müller, member of the management board, is proud of how the company has developed over the past two decades: “We started with just one employee and have now grown to a team of 25. Alongside our headquarters in Kaufering, we have also had a Swiss office near Bern for some time now, so that we can extend the reach of our technical advice. Enquiries have long since stopped coming only from Germany.”
EPUTEC’s recipe for success combines energy-efficient products, reliable suppliers and a motivated team. Right from the start, these three pillars have played a key role in winning many satisfied customers and achieving healthy company growth.
Anniversary celebrations
Of course, a twentieth birthday called for a big party. The evening was an opportunity to look back on the successes and milestones of the last two decades and to honour the people who made it all possible together.
Our special guests included Neal Raker, Head of Application Engineering at the US manufacturer EXAIR, whose compressed air solutions we have distributed exclusively in the German-speaking region since our foundation. Many other long-standing business partners and companions also accepted our invitation, which delighted us.

Feeling lucky: three valuable main prizes were up for grabs in the anniversary prize draw
Teamwork makes the difference
Above all, however, the anniversary party was meant as a thank you to our employees, who across all departments helped EPUTEC retain key regular customers and at the same time win new customers at home and abroad, even under the difficult conditions of the recent past.
“That would certainly not have been possible without our good working atmosphere and the flexibility of our workforce”, stresses authorised signatory and Sales Manager Manuel Müller. “Added to this is the trusting cooperation with our suppliers, agencies and fitters, who, like us, value quality and long-term relationships. With these strong partners and our committed team, we are well equipped for future challenges too.”
Now, if that isn’t another reason to celebrate!
