Ten years of the Harting Quality and Technology Center
Successful model with and for the future
For a decade now, the Harting Quality and Technology Center (HQT) in Espelkamp has been a beacon of innovation and technical expertise. This centerpiece of the Harting Technology Group recently celebrated its tenth anniversary. "Our vision is that we want to shape the future with technologies for people. With the new Harting Quality and Technology Center, we have made good progress on our path." With these words, Senior Director Margrit Harting welcomed around 180 invited guests to the grand opening of the HQT exactly ten years ago.
"New Work" for state-of-the-art connection technology
With its state-of-the-art testing facilities and laboratories, it has been a competence center for the development and quality assurance of innovative fastening technology solutions for a decade. The building continues to be a symbol of innovative strength and represents a forward-looking corporate culture. With its modern infrastructure and flexible interior design, the HQT underlines the principles of "New Work".
Especially after the coronavirus pandemic, new areas of the company such as corporate communications and the development of new technologies were integrated into the building. This brings departments closer together and promotes exchange and collaboration.
The open and transparent architecture of the HQT reflects Harting's corporate philosophy. Flexible work areas, modern conference rooms and inviting common areas offer space for creative ideas and productive cooperation.
Architecture reflects corporate philosophy
"This is a place of encounter and inspiration where we pool expertise, promote exchange and thus create the basis for pioneering innovations," emphasizes Dr. Stephan Middelkamp, Head of Quality and Technologies.
