Our history
2025
45 years with the company – a real highlight!
There was something very special to celebrate recently at trippe industrieelectronic gmbh: our colleague Andreas Kruse can look back on an incredible 45 years with the company.
Andreas is not only a walking encyclopaedia when it comes to technical knowledge, but also someone you can always rely on. Whether it's quick assistance, a sympathetic ear or a steady hand in stressful moments, he is simply there when you need him. It is precisely this combination of experience, commitment and humanity that makes him a colleague you wouldn't want to be without.
We would therefore like to express our heartfelt thanks for all these years of dedication, loyalty and team spirit. Looking back, we look back on our time together with great appreciation and at the same time look forward to the future, in which we can continue to count on Andreas.
