Who we are.
Family business. With tradition and vision.
About us.
Since 1932, the Bender Group has stood for corporate responsibility, technical excellence, and human values. We are a third-generation medium-sized company. What began as a wire drawing factory in Hagen is now a diversified group of companies with a global reach. Our roots lie in craftsmanship, but our sights are set on the future. We combine in-depth technological expertise with experience, passion, and a clear set of values.
Relevant
Our companies are a fundamental part of modern value chains, from automotive and medical technology to aviation and electronics. In short, without our services, many things would come to a standstill.
For us, relevance means offering products and services that are truly needed. That make a difference. That set standards. We are proud of this and measure ourselves against it every day.

We continuously invest in innovation and further development.
We understand our customers' needs and deliver solutions that work.
We keep our finger on the pulse and adapt to market changes
Approachable
We are a family business based in Hagen. Generations work together with respect, reliability, and a passion for good craftsmanship. We listen, make pragmatic decisions, and stand by our word.
For us, being approachable means that our doors are open. That you can talk to us. That we are not just business partners, but people who want to achieve something together.

Specifically, this means:
Short decision-making processes and direct contact with decision-makers
Respectful interaction on equal terms, both internally and externally
Reliability and commitment in all business relationships
Pragmatic solutions instead of bureaucratic hurdles
Resilient
Three divisions. Europe and the USA. Organic growth and targeted acquisitions. We focus on diversification, long-term thinking, and quality in practice—this makes us robust, even when the going gets tough.
For us, resilience does not mean that we do not face challenges. It means that we overcome them. That we emerge stronger from crises. That we remain flexible without abandoning our principles.

What sets us apart.
As an owner-managed company, we think in terms of generations, not quarters. This gives us the freedom to invest for the long term and make decisions that create sustainable value.
Three different business areas make us resilient to market fluctuations. What is challenging in one division can open up opportunities in another.
For us, quality is not just a phase, but a way of life. Whether it's wire for key industries, anti-aging products, machines, or perhaps the most delicious pizza in the world. We only deliver what we can vouch for with a clear conscience.
Our employees are the foundation of our success. We invest in their development, value their expertise, and create an environment where performance and collaboration go hand in hand.
