SIKORA has recently launched a new logo in celebration of its 50th anniversary this year. The company has been developing and producing innovative measuring and control technology since 1973, to increase its customers’ productivity.
In 1972, Mr. Harald Sikora invented a non-contact measuring device for the continuous measurement of cable insulation, wall thickness and concentricity during manufacturing, a technology that later established itself as a global standard and became the basis for a start-up. On November 1, 1973 the company’s success story began, driven by a multitude of technological advances. The company grew, and in 1979, it changed its name to SIKORA INDUSTRIEELEKTRONIK GMBH. In the 90s, SIKORA added many more products to its portfolio, including X-ray devices for measuring the wall thickness of three-layer medium, high and extra-high voltage cables during the cable production. SIKORA has met the global demand for measuring devices since 1991 and has established a worldwide sales network, with the first representative offices in the USA and China.

In 2000, the first subsidiary opened in the USA, followed by China and Italy. Over the next several years, numerous other international locations opened. This success was echoed in the 2002 decision to transform SIKORA INDUSTRIEELEKTRONIK GMBH into the stock corporation SIKORA AG. In addition to the focus on quality, material efficiency and sustainability have become critical over the years. Economical in addition to ecological advantages gain importance in quality control. SIKORA measuring devices assist manufacturers in these endeavors by reducing material and scrap.
The company was later divided into two business segments: the SIKORA HOLDING GmbH & Co. KG and the SIKORA AG. The company continued to grow and delve into new markets and opened a new 4-story building in Bremen in 2019 for production, R&D and other employees to have spacious and creative working environments.
