With incoming orders up by 35 % and a 4 % growth in sales, Hima has in the last year further expanded its position as a global safety solution provider. Most of the growth in financial year 2012 came from Europe, the United States and Asia Pacific, with substantial increases in large-scale projects. Sales rose 4 % to 90 million euro. Of this increase, 28 % were generated in Germany, 30 % in the rest of Europe and 42 % in non-European countries.
The above-average number of orders received during the first quarter, 60 % over the previous year, suggests that a double-digit growth in sales can be expected for the current year. Contributing to Hima’s growth are diverse development activities and product innovations for the process industry, rail industry and machine safety. Today, over 33,000 systems are installed in the process industry alone. Integrated application solutions for turbo machines and compressors, burner control and boiler protection systems, and for the management of gas and liquid fuel pipelines are successfully established on the market.
