Horlemann, based in the Ruhr region and in the Berlin area (Germany), is a family-owned company since 1933. With an annual turnover around €100 million in 2016 and 570 people, Horlemann is specialised in engineering, construction and maintenance of electrical grids as well as lighting operations and automation process dedicated to electrical grids.
