The lime tree AG is an international company with the three principal activity areas gas and engineering and material handling. The division refrigeration technology was meanwhile separated and sold. The head office sits in Wiesbaden.
The shares of the lime tree AG are excluding so-called bearer shares and at all German stock exchanges as well as in Zurich are acted. They belong to the DAX 30.
1874 are installed by way of trial in the residents of Munich spade brewery a refridgerator after Professor Dr. Carl von Lindes ideas. The agreement in addition was already closed 1871, the patent was announced 1873.
On 21 June 1879 the society for lime tree' s ice machines corporation was then created. Professor Dr. Carl von Linde gave for it his safe official posts up.
Dr. Carl von Linde its activity in the executive committee of the society terminates and went 1889 back into the research at the technical university at that time Munich.
There it began to develop 1891 the lime tree procedure for the dismantling from air, designated after him, to, which was promoted 1892 by an order of the Guinness brewery. Together with his son Dr. Friedrich lime tree it developed step by step a functional procedure, until plant for it could go to 1903 the first industrielle into enterprise.
The lime tree company organizer lime tree of the German of Masters, an international Golfturniers.Er is supports the Partnership with other German enterprises the hessian upper stage boarding school for high performance pupils lock Hans mountain, private in a Public, financially and contentwise.
The division gas and engineering developed from the former ranges technical gases and process engineering.
The divisions lime tree gas is prominent offerer of medicine and industrial gases in Europe. It goes back on the 1902 from Professor Dr. Carl von Linde invented lime tree procedures for the dismantling from air into its components. 1903 were taken in the Pullacher local part south of Munich the first liquid air separation plant in enterprise.
1974 began the structure of the gas business in Brazil and Australia. After the turn 1990 lime tree took over the range technical gases of the Leuna of works (Leuna).
1991 acquired lime tree the participation of the majority at the prominent Czech gas enterprise Technoplyn a.s. and took over it 1995 completely.
1992 were supplemented the portions of the largest Netherlands offerer technical gases, nv the W.A. Hoek's Machine EN Zuurstoffabriek on over 60%, held since 1974.
1994 inauguration of the world-wide largest gas center of lime tree in Leuna. Lime tree transfers the Italian gas enterprise Caracciolossigeno in this year also s.r.l.
1997 receive an international consortium with participation of lime tree the order to supply over 15 years the Mexican oil company Pemex with nitrogen. Lime tree builds for it the largest air liquefaction plant of the world. The order value for lime tree is more than 150 millions US-$. Besides lime tree of the air Products GmbH Salzburg acquires their hydrogen activities in Austria and continues to remove the carbonic acid business in Austria by two participations of the majority. Lime tree and the AGA agree OFF when planning and with the building of Luftzerlegern to cooperate to hydrogen and carbon monoxide plants.
1998: Lime tree supplies the Central German oil refinery GmbH (MIDER) in Leuna with technical gases. The refinery belonging to the French mineral oil company eleven Aquitaine refers hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen of lime tree.
2000 were taken over the competitor AGA. Thus lime tree the second largest European gas offerer and the fourth largest became world-wide.
The division gained 2002 with 3.100 coworkers approximately 870 millions "€ conversion. 1999 was that 26.1% of the gross income. Of it 1999 37% in Germany, 43% in the rest of Europe, 17% in America and 3% in Australia and Asia were gained.
The division was integrated after a temporary separating from the company around the turn of the century and own Firmierung as GmbH meanwhile again into the nut/mother enterprise.
In March 2006 an assumption offer was made for the English competitor BOC (purchase price approx. 12.4 billion "€). Thus lime tree would become the world-wide largest gas offerer.
Ranges of application the technical gases are in the medicine (e.g. Endoskopie and artificial respiration), foodstuffs industry (cooling and frosts of food with nitrogen and carbon dioxide, packing food in modifzierter atmosphere nitrogen, carbon dioxide and oxygen, chemical industry (oxygen employment for the increase in output of Claus and FCC plants), metallurgy (blow thermal treatment from steel with oxygen,), rubber and plastic industry (deburr gas internal pressure technology from rubber parts,), building industry (soil freezing and concrete-cool with liquid nitrogen, neutralization of building site waste water with carbon dioxide) or environmental technology (stimulation of waters and purification plants by oxygen) as well as welding engineering (of inert gas mixtures, as well as oxygen and acetylene in autogenous engineering).
The center of the division lime tree engineering sits likewise in The field of application is the planning and construction of ready for occupancy process engineering plants among other things for the Petrochemie, chemical industry, liquid air separation, natural gas treatment, cryogenics and for the pharmaceutical industry.
The range employs approximately 4,000 coworkers at more than twenty locations world-wide.
The division material handling manufactures mobile handling equipment and storage engineering devices. Admit are above all the lime tree fork-lift trucks. The company is also in the possession of the marks quiet and COM Pimespo.
On 15 February 1904 by Dr. Hugo Professor Dr. Carl von Linde and Dr. Georg von Krauss the Motorenwerke in Munich was created. She is taken over and restructured 1929 by lime tree ice machines. First starting from 1933 small diesel engines are produced, later starting from 1938 gas engines and - generators, larger diesel engines and tractors.
1956 are built for 1958 the first fork-lift truck with hydrostatic transmissions in Aschaffenburg the first hydrostatically propelled transport vehicle. 1969 are adjusted production by tractors and tractors and changed over completely to the production by fork-lift trucks.
1973 are transferred quietly the 1920 by Hans's quiet to Hamburg created GmbH, which, after it repaired first electric motors and built semiautomatic emergency power generators, presented 1949 the first fork-lift truck.
1984 are taken over the French stacker manufacturer Fenwick lime tree S.A.R.L, 1989 the British Lansing.
1993 are created Xiamen (People's Republic of China) a joint undertaking with the second largest Chinese manufacturer by stackers.
1999 acquire lime tree of union carbide the right of the use of a name for lime tree in the USA back and can now world-wide under this name firmieren.
The range refrigeration technology decreases/goes back likewise to an establishment of Professor Dr. Carl von Linde. It firmierte first under the name Lindes ice machines AG.
1996 lime tree take over the refrigeration technology enterprise Frigorex AG, Luzern, from the Swiss Sulzer AG, Winterthur.
Today (2004) the division is refrigeration technology market leader in Europe for cool and deep-freeze equipments for all ranges of the food retail trade. The range refrigeration technology works besides in the area of the space and process cooling.
2003 gained 6361 coworkers world-wide a conversion of 866 million "€.
2004 are sold to lime tree refrigeration technology to the carrier corporation
After a Patenterwerb at nitrogen monoxide lime tree raised the price of AG, when new monopolist in this area, the formerly inexpensive gas, which is used among other things in the baby medicine, around the 50-fache. After public pressure had developed itself concerning the marketing practice of the lime tree company with its product INOmax, the European patent office explained the patent used by lime tree on 17 November 2004 after an objection of the lime tree competitors air Products and air liquid one as the use of nitrogen monoxide against lung malfunctions for ineffective.
