The story of the AKG Group is a remarkable 106-year German saga, a tale of a company that has masterfully evolved from a small, local repair shop into a leading worldwide manufacturer of high-performance thermal solutions. It is a journey built on a foundation of "Made in Germany" engineering, a history of continuous innovation, and a clear, forward-looking vision.

    This epic journey began in 1919 in Dortmund, as a specialty company for the repair and manufacture of replacement automotive coolers. But a new, transformative era began after World War II. After establishing its current headquarters in Hofgeismar in 1946, the company made a pivotal and defining leap. In 1949, they began the development and production of the first standard coolers for the original equipment (OEM) automotive industry. This was the moment they transformed from a repair service into a true manufacturing partner.

    At the very heart of their identity is this history of technological pivots. This is a story of a company that didn't stand still. In 1962, they made another crucial move, beginning the manufacture of advanced aluminum, high-pressure heat exchangers, a technology that would become a cornerstone of their future expertise.

    This commitment to innovation, guided by the Pietzcker family, was the engine for their growth, propelling them to become one of the leading manufacturers of heat exchangers in Europe. This success was then taken to the world, a commitment powerfully demonstrated in 1981 with the founding of AKG of America in North Carolina. After more than a century, the story of AKG is one of a company that has masterfully combined its rich history with a deep commitment to technical innovation, a promise of a high-quality, expertly engineered solution from a true and historic German leader.
