RUD‘s Mission Statement

RUD’s innovation strategy

We are a dynamic and modern family

enterprise, that is active worldwide. We

have held key positions in the mechanical

engineering fields of forming, welding, heat

treatment, surface technology, forging and

machining for 135 years. That is the best

qualification for a company’s future as a

“Hidden Champion of the 21st Century“.

When it comes to hoisting, pulling and

conveying, our RUD hoisting chains,

detachable RUD lifting points and RUD

conveyor systems are a byword for quality,

innovation and safety. RUD and Erlau non-

skid chains allow safe driving whether on

snow and ice or on the toughest off-road

terrain, and also have innovative fitting

systems and a long service life.

RUD and Erlau tyre protection chains

protect the treads and side walls of the

tyres of earth moving machines.

The Erlau range of outdoor furniture offers

attractively designed and elegant seating.

Our Erlau Human Care products, safety and

grab rail systems for sanitary facilities offer

high degrees of flexibility and individuality.

RUD sets the new technological standards.

Our products combine the most advanced

technology with clearly defined environ-

mental management. As far as we‘re

concerned, that means continual growth

accompanied by systematic conservation of

all the resources required. We always strive

for perfection, and regard what we have

achieved as the basis for new ideas.
