Ketsch/Sault Ste. Marie. Six months after the acquisition, Hengst Filtration has renamed its subsidiary Main Filter. As a result, the filtration specialist now also offers its hydraulic products in North America under the Hengst Filtration brand. Three years after the acquisition and integration of Bosch Rexroth's hydraulic filter business, Hengst is further expanding its activities in this area.
By integrating the Main products into the Hengst portfolio, we will be able to offer our customers an even wider range of products in future, thereby strengthening our hydraulics aftermarket business in particular.
