Quality without compromise
Our values and standards for the highest product quality
Vision & Mission
ALMEX is a German technology company headquartered in Hanover that develops and manufactures innovative solutions, e.g., for public transport, retail, logistics and robotics.
Our Vision
Build-to-Run: our holistic approach.
We do not just develop products; we support the entire process—from strategic consulting (CONSULTING) and technical development (ENGINEERING) to in-house manufacturing (MANUFACTURING) and long-term service (SERVICES). Everything is coordinated through our project management (PROJECTS). This creates solutions designed for durability and operation from the outset.
Our Mission
With innovative solutions that are a perfect fit, we make a significant contribution to our customers’ success and drive digitalization forward.
Ergonomic products that are simple and intuitive to use
Lean, efficient processes for fast results
Investment security through durable, robust solutions
Secure jobs with creative challenges
Continuous improvement in accordance with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001
Our Guidelines
These values shape our work and define the ALMEX spirit: pioneering spirit, flexibility, engineering excellence, and a family-like culture built on trust and personal responsibility.
Pioneering spirit & the courage to innovate
We venture into new territory—fearlessly. ALMEX accepts calculated risks in new developments. Projects are launched before an order is secured when timing requires it. “We are not perfect, but close—and always at the forefront.”
Exceptional Flexibility
Deep customer understanding
Family-like corporate culture
Flat hierarchies, an informal culture, direct collaboration. Very family-like, short decision-making paths, open communication—”little politics”. High employee retention: many have been with us for 20+ years. “Working together is genuinely positive. It is not a corporate mindset, and everyone is there for everyone.”
Personal responsibility & trust
Employees are given a great deal of responsibility and room to shape outcomes. Error culture: mistakes are learning opportunities, not reasons for blame. Low reporting requirements, resulting in greater efficiency. Decisions are made decentralised and quickly.
Engineering Excellence
Technically proficient and solution-oriented. Engineering is the strongest core competence. A combination of hardware, software and design engineering under one roof. Nearly 50 years of know-how thanks to low staff turnover—”engineering close to perfection”.
Quality Management
From development to manufacturing: quality is in our DNA and is ensured at every step of the Build-to-Run performance levels.

Corporate culture
At ALMEX, we have succeeded in preserving the direct and open corporate culture from our founding days to this day—despite growth to around 130 employees.
People at the center
Behind the name ALMEX are people: engineers, computer scientists, business professionals, designers, technicians and administrative staff. Their shared goal is to develop and manufacture high-performing and highly efficient, yet user-friendly and reliable products.
The company’s performance is shaped by the creative interplay of different strengths and ways of thinking that productively collide here.
ALMEX employees design and engineer; they organize and support manufacturing; they train users and answer customer questions. They are highly qualified, work conceptually or in design engineering, are highly specialized and innovative, committed, and embedded in a wide range of communication and discussion contexts.
Health is a priority: The successful introduction of occupational health management (BGM) in 2018 underscores our commitment to the well-being of our employees.
