HIMA – first port of call for safety solutions.

About us


HIMA is the first port of call for many companies throughout the world when it comes to safety-related automation solutions. The secret of our success is that we focus uncompromisingly on the field of safety. That is because focus leads to absolute expertise and increases experience - and that in turn means better solutions for processmachine and building safety.

We never lose sight of the fact that HIMA solutions have to be not only safe, reliable and cost-effective, but also easy to integrate comprehensively into any automation environment.

We work with our clients to ensure that every aspect of the safety life cycle is taken into account. Practically focused safety consulting provides the basis for efficient solutions which help our clients to fulfil their legal, financial and moral responsibilites.One of the signs of our success are the 25,000 systems we have installed in the global process industry - more than all of our competitors put together - as well as a series of ground-breaking projects involving new, creative solutions in the field of machine safety as well as building safety.

No manufacturer of safety-related control systems has established more milestones in the development of new solutions. No other company has a higher R&D budget in relation to its turnover. No other company has more TÜV-certified safety specialists. All of these are prerequisites for creating state-of-the-art solutions.

The success of the global HIMA Group can also be demonstrated numerically. Our turnover has increased by double figures in each of the last three years, while our staff has grown by 30%, and we have founded five new subsidiaries in the USA, Italy, Slovakia, Dubai and Malaysia. We have also entered into numerous development partnerships with world-leading companies - further evidence of our pioneering potential.

The ability to respond quickly, high flexibility levels, continuous new and ongoing developments - we have remained independent up to the present day with the typical virtues of a German family-owned company and the high level of quality awareness that goes along with that. This also sets us in good stead for the future.

HIMA did celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2008 - and is already busy preparing for the next 100 years. You can look forward to more innovations from HIMA in the future to come.
