"We want our moral concepts concerning quality, product and customer to be unalterable."

Close customer contact
We offer competence and on-site application know-how plus the corresponding services to more than 65,000 customers in many different industries, at more than 60 sales locations worldwide.

Quality:
The production of 3.5 million sensors per year worldwide is accompanied by objective, automatic and software-based test methods during development and production and a 100% final inspection. In the future, this will continue to be ensured by the certification to DIN ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.

Innovations:
Our product development always serves the same customer objectives: Our robust and easy-to-use innovations lead to cost reductions and increases in productivity in the processes of our customers. We have more than 400 patents and more than 240 development engineers all over the world. We invest in research and development for innovative but straightforward solutions.

Vision:
"Vision of a future - ifm's philosophy - ifm's corporate principles"

"Ideas, perspectives and corporate principles which shall jointly accompany, shape and unite us."
