With its first-place finish in the Austria’s Leading Companies (ALC) competition, the Wietersdorfer Group's strategy for internationalisation and diversification has been recognised.
The Wietersdorfer Group is thrilled to announce its first-place achievement at this year’s ALC Carinthia. The prestigious business award, presented by "Presse," "KSV1870," and "PwC" yesterday at the Casineum Velden, highlights the successful trajectory of this Carinthian family business. "This award is a testament to the hard work of our employees and demonstrates that our chosen path across all five of our business areas is successful. On behalf of the entire group, I would like to express my gratitude for this wonderful recognition," said Michael Junghans, CEO of the Wietersdorfer Group.
In recent years, the Wietersdorfer Group has laid a solid foundation for the future, driven by the diversification and internationalisation of the Carinthian company, which operates in 47 countries through its five business sectors: GFRP piping systems, PPR piping systems, industrial minerals, lime, and cement & concrete. The company has been managed from Carinthia for 120 years.
