Alfred Kärcher – inventor and entrepreneur
Alfred Kärcher, like Robert Bosch, Gottlieb Daimler and Graf Zeppelin, was one of the inventors and entrepreneurs that Württemberg produced in such great number since the beginning of the industrial era. With the utmost commitment, he dedicated himself to bringing his ideas to fruition. In 1924, the then 23-year-old completed his studies at the Technical University of Stuttgart and worked first of all at his father's agency, which he developed into an engineer's office. In 1935 he founded his own company in Bad Cannstatt, Stuttgart so that he could produce and market his own products in the field of heating technology. Alfred Kärcher designed and built the "Kärcher salt bath furnace", among other products, for tempering steel and light metal in industry according to his own patent.
In 1939, the family-owned company relocated to Winnenden, where it still has its headquarters. By this time the company was also producing heating devices for aircraft engines and cabin heating systems. Following the Second World War, the company turned its attention to products for urgent, everyday use: round stoves, small cookers, handcarts and trailers for tractors.
Move into cleaning technology
Alfred Kärcher made his breakthrough into the cleaning technology industry in 1950 with the development of the first European hot water high-pressure cleaner (the DS 350 steam jet). The design of the water heater proved to be so pioneering that it still forms the basis of all burners today.
Like so many, Alfred Kärcher did not live to see the global success of his innovation. When he died on 17 September 1959 at the age of 58, his wife Irene took over the management of the company and steered its fortunes for three decades. Today their children Johannes Kärcher and Susanne Zimmermann von Siefart are in charge of the family-owned company in its second generation.
Internationalisation
In 1962, Kärcher founded its first foreign subsidiary in France, followed by Austria and Switzerland. Internationalisation continued apace. In 1975, Kärcher opened a factory in Brazil; 10 years later, the company had founded 16 sales companies in North America, Africa, Australia and elsewhere. By 2012, Kärcher was represented by subsidiaries in 57 countries and generating 85% of its sales abroad. With 40,000 customer service points in over 190 countries, Kärcher provides comprehensive support to its customers all over the world.
Growth through innovation
After a phase of diversification, Kärcher turned its attention to high-pressure cleaning in 1974. During this period, the colour of the machines was changed from blue to the now world-famous Kärcher yellow. In 1980, the company expanded its product range to cover basic cleaning requirements, initially in the areas of transport and buildings. Step by step, the range was expanded with the addition of wet and dry vacuum cleaners, sweeper vacuums and scrubber driers, vehicle washing bays, steam cleaners, cleaning agents and drinking water and wastewater treatment systems.
Among the milestones in Kärcher's history was the introduction in 1984 of the HD 555 profi, the first portable high-pressure cleaner, and the subsequent expansion into the consumer market. In 1993, this range was expanded to include indoor products and Kärcher has since added steam cleaners and vacuum cleaners for private households to its range. The RoboCleaner RC 3000 was launched in 2003 as the world's first fully automatic robotic vacuum cleaner. In 2007, Kärcher moved into the completely new sector of gardening, which includes pumps for watering, water removal and service water supply in households, as well as an extensive range of accessories.
In 1986, Kärcher launched its pioneering roller brush technology for scrubber driers in the professional range. Thanks to the development of a new rotary nozzle (dirt blaster) in 1995, the cleaning effect of the high-pressure cleaner was almost doubled. The dust intake of commercial wet and dry vacuum cleaners was continuously improved, and in 2007 the innovative TACT filter cleaning system was launched. New procedures were also developed in the course of worldwide cleaning projects: the 284 travertine columns on St Peter's Square in Rome were restored using a specially developed spray process over a total area of 25,000 m². Since 2009, Kärcher has been selling ultra-high pressure cleaners, which, at up to 2,500 bar pressure, not only clean but restore facades and strip concrete. In the same year, a multipurpose municipal sweeper was released onto the market and new target groups were gained with the launch of water dispensers.
Kärcher becomes a global market leader
Innovation has been and continues to be the most important growth factor. In 2011 alone, Kärcher launched over 100 new products. The global market leader in cleaning technology will continue to be characterised by its ingenuity, top performance and innovative problem solving.

When it comes to Loading Bay safety, Rite-Hite can rightfully claim to be an expert. Its Global Wheel-Lok system has been a mainstay of European Loading Bay installations since 1997.
But Rite-Hite is more than just a ‘products’ business; it delivers a range of solutions within the warehousing, logistics and distribution industry, with industrial doors, barriers and fans designed and proven to improve safety, security, productivity, energy savings and environmental control.
The company has deep roots, having been founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by Arthur K. White in 1965. It quickly gained prominence amongst the manufacturers of Loading Bay equipment, and in 1980 launched its iconic DOK-LOK® trailer restraint. Its proprietary design, which provides protection against several types of trailer separation, quickly became the industry standard and to this day continues to be the preferred option for the majority of installations worldwide.
Rite-Hite understands the critical importance of safety and security in Loading Bay environments. It also understands the demands placed on firms to deliver more in less time. In an average year, a single worker crosses the Loading Bay threshold (i.e the edge between the Loading Bay and the vehicle) some 100,000 times, with the obvious risk this entails. Add to that the constant flow of forklift, truck and trailer traffic, and the international nature of logistics where multiple languages are spoken and occasionally misunderstood, and the risk of costly accidents or serious injury increases.
It was to address these risks that Rite-Hite created the Global Wheel-Lok, so called because it is designed to secure any type of trailer to the Loading Bay. Manufactured in Europe, it prevents well-known incidents such as vehicle creep (also known as ‘dock walk’), and accidents caused by a vehicle leaving its bay too early. Traditional wheel chocks are limited in their use and unreliable, especially in poor weather conditions. They are also not strong enough to prevent a vehicle from pulling away unexpectedly and require someone to put them in place.
With Rite-Hite’s system, the driver simply reverses their vehicle to the Bay where wheel guides ensure accurate positioning onto the Global Wheel-Lok. As the tyre crosses the locking arm, the barrier rises and, using the energy of the trailer, follows the tyre until the trailer stops against the dock bumpers. The tyre is then locked in place, and a simple ‘green/red’ lighting system indicates to the driver – and the Loading Bay workers – that it is safe to continue.
When loading/unloading is completed, the Loading Bay worker presses the ‘unlock’ button to release the locking teeth, and a green light is displayed to the driver. The locking arm follows the trailer tyre back to its original resting position, and the vehicle is safe to leave. Being self-powered and with only four main components, the system is extremely reliable and easy to maintain. It is also particularly robust, capable of resisting up to 14,500kg of pull out force. Perhaps not surprisingly it is recognised as Europe’s only restraint to exceed the requirement for an FEMClass 3 vehicle restraint on both empty and full trailers.
Rite-Hite’s suite of Loading Bay safety solutions does not stop at the Global Wheel-Lok. It includes its Dok-Guardian Safety Barriers which prevent workers and forklift drivers from falling over the edge of a vacant Loading Bay. Simple and easy-to-use, the barriers are made of PVC-coated fibreglass mesh, bound with highly visible bright yellow, heavy-duty, polyester restraint straps that are strong enough to stop a 4500kg forklift truck moving at speeds of up to 6.5km/h. When not in use, the safety barrier retracts inside steel wardens. The barriers integrate with Rite-Hite’s powerful Dok-Commander Interlock system, which enables complete control of multiple pieces of loading dock equipment from a single, centralised unit. This powerful control system offers a real-time trailer presence monitor that provides a camera view of the exterior vehicle restraint.
Beyond the Loading Bay, Rite-Hite’s solutions include a range of systems to further improve safety and energy efficiency. High-speed FasTrax doors, for example, are efficient insulators, avoiding airflow issues and reducing cooling loss (in refrigerated/cold storage areas) to deliver significant energy savings. They also have a range of safety features built in, including a soft-bottom edge and the ability to refeed automatically should they be hit, without the need to be manually re-set.
In addition to high-speed doors, Rite-Hite also manufactures in-plant safety barriers to separate and define work areas and walkways, provide drop-off protection for interior loading and safeguards docks by offering a substantial visual and physical barrier. Finally, it also designs high-volume, low-speed fans to address environmental control issues (cooling and heating) and provide an alternative to less effective floor fans.
Rite-Hite representatives offer a series of local services that provide support and maintenance to all of its customers throughout Europe. To find out more, visit: https://www.ritehite.com/en/eu
