The strong demand for innovations and enhancements of Hager products is a good indicator for this customer-driven policy.
Today, Hager employs about 660 engineers in research and development (R&D) and invests about five per cent of its revenue for R&D, since Hager strives permanently to offer innovative and value-adding systems to its customers. Every year, Hager applies for about 170 new patents. |
