KG was founded in <a href="/en/locations-contact/germany/fellbach/">Fellbach</a> near Stuttgart.<br /> With the development of expansion valves for automotive air conditioning (HVAC) and temperature controls for domestic technology, the company quickly gained market shares and advanced the know-how on other fields of Control Technology.</p> <p>New factories were founded in <a href="/en/locations-contact/france/">France</a> in Seltz in 1960 and in Breitenbach in 1980. Further globalization steps were taken with the development of sales offices in Shanghai in 1998 and in Detroit in 2000.<br /> Worldwide production was expanded during 2005 with the erection of an <a href="/en/locations-contact/usa/">American factory</a> and a <a href="/en/locations-contact/china/">Chinese factory</a>. EGELHOF is also producing in <a href="/en/locations-contact/india/">India </a>since 2013.</p> <ul> <li>1938: Foundation of the company</li> <li>1960: Foundation of EGELHOF Seltz</li> <li>1980: Foundation of EGELHOF Breitenbach</li> <li>1992: Foundation of EGELHOF Holding Breitenbach</li> <li>1998: Foundation of EGELHOF China Shanghai/ China</li> <li>2000: Foundation of EGELHOF Controls in Detroit/ USA</li> <li>2001: Foundation of the Joint-Ventures Suzhou EGELHOF Controls in Suzhou/ China</li> <li>2005: Foundation of EGELHOF Controls in Toledo/ USA</li> <li>2005: Foundation of EGELHOF Regelungstechnik Suzhou China</li> <li>2008: Foundation of EGELHOF SENSORIC SAS in Vill茅 / France</li> <li>2009: Merger EGELHOF SENSORIC SAS -
