The Wuppermann Group
INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT AND EXPERT PROCESSING
For almost 140 years now, the name Wuppermann has stood for quality made of steel. Since its foundation in 1872, the family-owned company has steadily advanced to become what it is today: an innovative product developer and an expert in processing and finishing. The Wuppermann range extends from flat products, tubes, and sheet metal parts to integrated components and complex assemblies made of steel, stainless steel, and aluminium.
The Wuppermann Group in its present structure was formed in 1985 from the companies remaining in the family's possession following the sale of the rolling mill in Leverkusen. It is controlled by the holding company Wuppermann AG, based in Leverkusen, which is fully owned by the family. The group's business operations are divided into three business units: Flat Products, Technical Products and Service & Consulting. The group has 12 production sites, with a total workforce of over 1,300 employees. In 2010, it posted revenue of € 455 million.

GIVING NEW RECRUITS A CHANCE: THE FAIR COMPANY INITIATIVE
As a member of the Fair Company initiative, Wuppermann undertakes to promote the career prospects of new recruits through adherence to five clearly defined rules.
The companies of the Wuppermann Group pledge
- not to replace full-time employees with interns, volunteers, or permanently employed casual labour
- not to fob off graduates who have applied for a full-time job with the offer of an internship
- not to lure interns with the vague promise of a full-time job
- to offer internships primarily with a view to providing career orientation during the training period
- to provide interns with adequate remuneration
