Leadership with Vision
Experience, Innovation, and Pragmatism
With over four decades of international market development and close customer support, ALMEX’s management knows what matters most: understanding the customer and developing suitable solutions. The goal is a long-term and sustainable partnership.
ALMEX is a family-run business, characterized by flat hierarchies and short decision-making processes. Management relies on trust, personal responsibility, and genuine customer orientation.
Management Board
ppa. Sven Lochau
Spokesperson of the Management Board
Head of Corporate Development, Research & Development
Sven Lochau is responsible for the strategic realignment of ALMEX – from a traditional product provider to a holistic innovation partner. With over 30 years of engineering know-how and a keen sense for technical excellence, he drives the transformation to “Build to Run”. Under his leadership, new business areas are being developed without losing the proven customer orientation and family-like corporate culture.
“We are not perfect, but close to it – and always at the forefront. Flexibility, professionalism, and passion: That’s what distinguishes ALMEX, and that remains constant, even as we change a lot.”
ppa. Thomas Apel
Member of the Management Board
Head of Finance and Administration
Thomas Apel ensures financial stability and operational excellence. With a clear view of economic opportunities and solid commercial leadership, he secures the foundation for growth and innovation. He fosters a culture of personal responsibility and short decision-making paths, which keeps ALMEX flexible and competitive. He sees engineering as the company’s strongest core competence.
“Employees are given a lot of freedom and responsibility, which promotes initiative. Mistakes are learning opportunities, not occasions for blame.”
ppa. Bernd Voigt
Member of the Management Board
Head of Operations
Bernd Voigt represents ALMEX Manufacturing and ALMEX Services. With 29 years of company experience, he possesses comprehensive expertise in industrialization, series production, and lifecycle management. In his many years of operational responsibility, he has overseen complex projects from the prototype phase to series production. Today, he brings this experience to collaborations with customers and partners as a competent contact person for manufacturing and service topics.
“What sets us apart is our ability to scale production capacities project-specifically – from locally manufactured small batches to series production in larger quantities. This flexibility allows us to structure and efficiently meet diverse customer requirements. Our responsibility does not end with series production. We systematically support the transition to rollout, service, and operation – as part of a comprehensive Build-to-Run approach.”
Boris Marten
Member of the Management Board
Corporate Development, Robotics

With his expertise in complex large-scale projects (e.g., UK rollout with 80% market share) and close integration with the global TriStar Group, he positions ALMEX as an agile, global partner for innovation.
“We are capable of conceiving brand-new solutions – even with a certain degree of risk. That is our pioneering spirit.”
