PFLITSCH receives TOP 100 seal

PFLITSCH, the Hückeswagen-based family business, is one of Germany’s top innovators and has officially been authorised to use the TOP 100 seal since February 2023. During the anniversary round of the German SME Summit in Überlingen/Augsburg, the two managing partners Roland Lenzing and Mathias Stendtke proudly accepted the award on 23.06.2023.

For 30 years now, the award has specifically embodied the innovative strength of small and medium-sized enterprises. “We’re delighted to have been recognised in this way, and we see it as confirmation of our corporate policy and future focus”, said Roland Lenzing, Managing Partner at PFLITSCH. The judging panel’s independent verdict takes account not only of past successes but also of future-viable measures and projects. A comprehensive scientific innovation analysis is employed to assess all participants in five categories. PFLITSCH was able to convince the jury with top results in the categories “Climate of Innovation” and “Innovative Processes/Organisation” and received an award for “Innovation-friendly Senior Management”. “The TOP 100 seal is a first-rate, reputation-enhancing testimonial. We’re honoured to have brought this award to Hückeswagen. We’d like to thank our entire PFLITSCH team: they are ultimately responsible for – and the key to – this success, and we’re more than happy to take on the challenge of further developing our innovative strength and hence our region as a business location”, explained co-Managing Partner Mathias Stendtke.
