    VEGA Grieshaber Celebrates

VEGA Grieshaber is looking back on 50 years of company history this year. In these 5 decennia they have evolved into a leading supplier of level, switching and pressure instrumentation. On the journey to achieve this strong position, the company always had one basic objective: the development of innovative, market leading products. Established in 1959 in the Black Forest, by Bruno Grieshaber, VEGA today employs 900 people world-wide, 500 of whom are at the company’s headquarters in Schiltach, Germany. In more than 70 countries, VEGA is actively represented with subsidiary companies and sales partners. Among their achievements is the first twowire radar sensor in the world, introduced in 1997; and the first radar sensor specially developed for level measurement of bulk solids introduced in 2004. Reliable level measurement is guaranteed even under most difficult process conditions of extreme dust generation, heat and filling noise.
