LAUDA ONCE AGAIN GLOBAL MARKET LEADER
Temperature control specialist receives award for the tenth time
LAUDA DR. R. WOBSER GMBH & CO. KG has been named the global market leader in the field of “constant temperature equipment and systems for precise temperature control” for the tenth time in a row. The renowned “Index of World Market Leaders,” compiled under the direction of Prof. Dr. Christoph Müller from the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland, forms the basis for the annual awards presented by the leading business magazine “WirtschaftsWoche.”
The anniversary award comes at a time of change: after spectacular growth in 2022 and three years of consolidation due to the challenging macroeconomic situation, LAUDA has been able to expand its global market position with current sales of around 100 million euros and around 600 employees. For 2026, the third-generation family-run company is planning sales growth of around 15 percent to around 115 million euros.
Dr. Gunther Wobser, President & CEO of LAUDA, emphasizes the significance of this tenth award: “The continuous recognition over a decade fills us with extraordinary pride. It confirms the exceptional performance of our employees at three German locations, in five production and ten sales companies. Over the past three years, we have acted prudently, carefully adjusted capacities, and optimized our processes. In doing so, we have defended our technological leadership and laid the foundation for future growth.”
LAUDA focuses on innovation in the areas of energy efficiency, digitalization, and sustainable temperature control solutions. The technologies ensure the optimum temperature in areas such as electromobility, hydrogen technology, and the pharmaceutical industry. The renewed award confirms LAUDA as an innovation driver and sales leader in the industry.
“The award from WirtschaftsWoche is both a confirmation and an obligation,” summarizes Dr. Wobser. “We have consolidated our market position and expanded our global presence. We are devoting even more attention to our customers worldwide. With precise temperatures, we are improving the world together – this vision unites our employees worldwide.”
The year 2026 will be marked by special milestones for LAUDA: as part of its return to growth, the family-owned company will celebrate its 70th anniversary on March 1.
We are LAUDA – the world leader in precise temperature control. Our constant temperature equipment and systems are at the heart of important applications, contributing to a better future. As a complete one-stop supplier, we guarantee the optimum temperature in research, production and quality control. We are the reliable partner for electromobility, hydrogen, chemicals, pharmaceuticals/biotech, semiconductors and medical technology.
