The Silbitz Group, headquartered in Silbitz, Thuringia, has three foundries in Silbitz, Zeitz and in Košice, Slovakia, as well as a mechanical processor in Stassfurt. The Silbitz Group, a company from the portfolio of Deutsche Beteiligungs AG (DBAG), is joining Meuselwitz Guss with immediate effect.

Investment in a secure future
"We are very pleased to be able to give the company a long-term perspective as a new co-shareholder of Meuselwitz Guss Eisengiesserei GmbH. We are convinced of the performance of the company and its employees," said Dr. Torsten Tiefel, Managing Director of Silbitz Group GmbH.

The group entered the Meuselwitz Guss Eisengiesserei GmbH by acquiring the shares of the former executive director, Mr. Herbert Werner. His merit is to have decisively developed and advanced the foundry: "After 48 years with Meuselwitz Guss and my many years as managing director and consultant in the company, the foundry is very important to me. The technical equipment of Meuselwitz Guss Eisengiesserei GmbH offers an excellent starting point for the further development of the company, so that I have decided to sell my company shares to Silbitz Group Beteiligungs GmbH ", explained Werner the reasons for the sale of his shares. And further: "I am sure that with the Silbitz Group, my life's work can continue not only in my own interests, but also in the interests of the motivated workforce and can be developed further on," said the former Managing Director of Meuselwitz Guss Eisengiesserei GmbH.

"As the Silbitz Group, we are aware of the long-standing commitment of Mr. Werner and we will be responsible for shaping the technically well-aligned company in his spirit," commented Dr. Tiefel the transition of the shares.
