On the first of April, 2021, Rittal will be celebrating its 60th anniversary. And we have many good reasons to celebrate. “Simplified. Done.” That's how Rudolf Loh and his companions started in 1961. With the simple idea of standardizing the enclosure. With the drive of the "doers" who - despite initial skepticism on the part of customers - led the enclosure to global success.
Founded in Herborn in 1961 and still run by its owner, Rittal is the largest company in the Friedhelm Loh Group. The Friedhelm Loh Group operates worldwide with 18 production sites and 94 international subsidiaries.
