Following the footsteps of our founder

Dr. Dr. Herbert Falk founded our company in 1960. When he passed away, his granddaughter Elena was still quite young and therefore she never really met him. And because she wanted to know what kind of person he was and what people connected with him – especially regarding the company he created - she decided to follow her grandpa's footsteps:
