Endress+Hauser has acquired additional shares in German-based Analytik Jena AG and exceeded the reportable threshold of 50 percent of the voting rights. The Group now owns 50.37 percent of the shares.

To optimize customer support, the measurement engineering specialist has established a new sales center in the United Arab Emirates. The inauguration took place on 5 March 2014. For two decades Endress+Hauser has been represented in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) by the local representative Descon Automation Control Systems. As a commitment to the Middle East region, the Swiss company has now integrated Descon’s Endress+Hauser business into its own sales organization.

Each year Endress+Hauser invests more than five million euros worldwide in the protection of intellectual property. This strengthens the Group’s position against its competitors – and spurs on the company’s inventors. The strategy proves successful: In 2013 Endress+Hauser filed initial patent applications for 236 new developments. The total number of ‘live’ patents and patent applications amounts to almost 5,700.
