LTB发展历程
| 2017 | On July 6, 2017, LTB Lasertechnik Berlin has been awarded the prize for “most family-friendly company 2017” of Treptow-Köpenick, by mayor Oliver Igel. The award ceremony took place during the business cards meeting of the Economic Development Treptow-Köpenick in the “Späth´schen tree nurseries”. The competition has been held annually since 2005 and is announced by the District Office. Lasertechnik Berlin has been applied this year for the first time.

The need for capacity expansion arose from the positive development of the two subsidiaries LTB Lasertechnik Berlin GmbH and Lufttechnik Schmeißer GmbH. The completion of the new building with a floor space of approx. 1,500 sqm is planned for November 2017. |
