tradition & institution Günter Effgen Managing Director Ralph Effgen outside the company’s new acquisition, the old tannery in Herrstein 064 GZ plus 05/18
Bringing momentum to his homeland Ralph Effgen, Managing Director of the company Günter Effgen, plays an active role in the region. Here he discusses the concepts of culture and competence, homeland and the future. The Effgen company has developed accurate grinding and drilling tools for the production of laser gyroscopes. These are used in navigation systems, in particular for the aviation and aerospace industry Photos: Martin Glauner GZ: What is your favourite place in the region to stop and take a rest? Ralph Effgen: Oberstein Castle is one of my favourite places. I grew up nearby and have been Chairman of the Castle Oberstein Fortress Association for 13 years. We organise lots of events such as readings and small concerts. And the Christmas market there is a highlight of the region. What is the driving force behind your commitment? For me, it’s about sustainable projects which strengthen the region and increase its renown. Through the ‘HartSpröde’ initiative, for example, we undertake national promotion of local people who specialise in the processing of hard and brittle materials such as ceramics. We also support schools, the Idar-Oberstein Summer of Theatre and the Symphony Wind Orchestra. You have also owned a book store for the last 5 years. How did that come about? After the book store in Oberstein’s pedestrian area had to close after 120 years of business, a friend and I decided to preserve this ‘piece of culture’ of the city. The three women who were working there now manage the business independently. And what are your visions for the future? Well, another shop in Oberstein, financed by the ‘Konsumgut’ cooperative. It has al- ready been possible to purchase the store through investment from local citizens. Here there should be regional products which are not available in the pedestrian area yet but belong here. Your production site of Herrstein also reflects your commitment to your homeland. Would there be any other potential alternative for production in Germany? No, not at all. We specialise in the individual production of special precision tools and have short delivery times. We could not achieve this anywhere else. The dual training in Germany is fantastic and the expertise of our employees is irreplaceable. Saraj Morath www.effgen.de GZ plus 05/18 065
