With retroactive effect from 1 October 2004, Voith Turbo GmbH & Co. KG (Heidenheim, Germany) is acquiring H+L Hydraulik GmbH & Co. KG, Rutesheim – a manufacturer of hydraulic systems solutions. The company will trade as Voith Turbo H+L Hydraulik GmbH & Co. KG and continue to operate from its headquarters at Rutesheim.
