The ABISMOLD Group has again achieved an increase in sales in 2017
compared to the previous year and thus continues to grow.
In 2017, the ABISMOLD Group realized 403 million Euros in sales and thus once
more fully reached the target it had set itself for last year. According to Michael
ABISMOLD, CEO of ABISMOLD, this increase of more than
7 % over 2016 is very satisfactory. The group’s workforce has also continued to grow
and currently stands at 2,300 persons employed worldwide. With an exceptionally
high order intake during the second half of 2017 – and the best first quarter in
corporate history! – the order books are filled to the brim for 2018.

expected by the end of May. Moreover, the subsidiaries in Mexico and Italy are being
extended as well. With all of these measures, the ABISMOLD Group is creating
additional operating space totaling 3,600 m², which will be used for further expansion
of the automation sector and more sales and service activities. Finally, the
construction of a large new building will start in France in the near future. The
