"We have more than 100 years of company history, which has always included the electronics industry as well as metalworking industries. After taking over the company, we initially focused on expanding the electronics business. But now it's time to push the other non-electronics products as well," says Markus Geßner, Head of Marketing and Sales at Emil Otto GmbH. The non-electronics product area comprises the industrial sectors of radiator construction, strip tinning, brazing, other soft soldering, etching, pickling, burnishing as well as toolmaking and mechanical engineering, with more than 1,000 different products.
Today, the company draws on a large number of formulas that have been developed over the last 100 years, continuously improved and adapted to new areas of application. "Our customers therefore benefit not only from the experience and knowledge of our current development team, but also from our previous generation. We know exactly what we are doing and how to provide the right solutions for our customers," continues Geßner. It should be noted that Emil Otto also supports customers with very small quantities as well as large customers. "This means that we also offer interesting solutions for many small and medium-sized craft businesses and industrial companies from our non-electronics portfolio," explains Geßner. Customer-specific solutions are also implemented.
The product portfolio for industrial applications includes a wide variety of items, as well as products that are only manufactured by Emil Otto worldwide, such as metal etchers. The various etching solutions, such as the green pen filled with NIGRIT VA etching solution or the blue pen with NIGRIT K-extra etching solution. Stainless steel, heavy metals, structural and tool steels and non-ferrous metals as well as aluminum and aluminum alloys can be processed with the etching pens from Emil Otto. This eliminates the need for time-consuming engraving or hammering in characters or numbers. The various etching solutions are durable and cannot be wiped off. They can only be removed mechanically. "Our etching pens are very popular. We offer all etching solutions in different quantities and packaging units for immediate use in metal processing. This means that all customer segments, from small workshops to large companies, can find the right product from us," explains Geßner.
