A decade full of innovation and growth
Erlangen, May 2025: Evosys Laser GmbH proudly celebrates its
10th anniversary as a leading company in laser plastic welding joining technology. Under the creative artificial word “Evosys”, a combination of “Evolution” and “Systems”, the search for the perfect identity that has characterized the company since its foundation began in 2015. Over the past 10 years, the company has succeeded in expanding its technical expertise, overcoming global crises and writing an impressive success story.
“The most important motivating force behind our success is our employees,” emphasized Frank Brunnecker, Managing Director of Evosys, in his speech at the company’s big celebration last Friday. “Entrepreneurial action, a global outlook and regional roots combined with advanced technology are the cornerstone of this success story and have enabled us to position ourselves successfully in a constantly changing market,” Brunnecker continued. Brunnecker is particularly grateful to the original founder, Andreas Kraus, who had the courage and confidence to collaborate and establish Evosys Laser GmbH. Together with the company Intego GmbH, a specialist in optical inspection for manufacturing, as an investor, which was also convinced by the concept and determination, the company was founded.
An enormous opportunity appeared just 2.5 years after the company was founded, in 2018, when Evosys ventured abroad through a joint venture – a decision that proved to be groundbreaking for the international business. The establishment of the company’s location in China, which Andreas Kraus actively promoted locally for two years, as well as the subsequent opening of another location in the USA, clearly demonstrates the company’s global outlook. In recent years, the company has increased its export share to an impressive 70 percent, while at the same time maintaining and further expanding its location in Erlangen.
Another important milestone was reached with the move to the company’s current location in Felix-Klein-Straße in Erlangen-Bruck. Modern premises with 1,200 square meters of office space and 1,500 square meters of warehouse space provide sufficient room for further expansion. The property was finally acquired in 2023 and now provides Evosys with a secure, central company headquarters and regional roots in the dynamic Nuremberg metropolitan region for the long term.
“Evosys is the result of a successful combination of innovative technology and a motivated, passionate team,” explains Managing Director Holger Aldebert. “We are firmly convinced that our simple recipe for success will continue to be the key to our long-term success.”
While the current market mood is tense, the company remains optimistic and looks to the future with confidence. “With our first-class products and a strong team, we will overcome the challenges and continue our success story,” concludes Brunnecker.
Evosys would like to thank all employees, partners and customers for a successful decade and looks forward to shaping the next chapters of this exciting journey together.
