OUR VISION

Our aspiration is to be the worldwide leading solution provider of thermal cutting systems. For over 120 years, our top priority has been to create more value for our customers, to help them grow and to form long-term partnerships with them. As a loyal partner, we firmly believe: our customer's success is our success.

Vice versa, the challenges they face are the challenges we as Messer Cutting Systems face. By providing the best solutions in machines, software and service as one seamless experience, not only will we master these challenges together, we will grow with them. Be it productivity and strong competition, digitization and reliability or flexibility – if we work together as partners, we will lead the way to the top.

"We are convinced that we can be the best possible partner to our customers by transforming from a mere manufacturing company to a full solution provider focusing on customer-driven innovation and delivering a 360-degree Messer Experience."


John Emholz
President and CEO Global of Messer Cutting Systems
