1984
The beginning with a clear focus
Eugen Theis founds the company with a clear vision: to build and maintain reliable vacuum systems for the local food industry. From the outset the focus is on practical relevance – with solutions that make processes safer and more efficient.
1999
Handover and specialisation
With the takeover by Oliver Hornberg, who is still active in the company today, a new phase of development begins. Eugen Theis Vakuum increasingly specialises in modern, energy-efficient central vacuum systems and positions itself as a technological solution provider.
2010–2020
Technological expansion and partnerships
During this period the cooperation with Atlas Copco Vacuum is continuously intensified. The aim is to use the innovative VSD+ technology to significantly increase energy efficiency and system availability while further expanding the technical network.
2021
Part of the Atlas Copco Group
Atlas Copco acquires Eugen Theis Vakuum. This opens up new opportunities to grow in a targeted way in the highly competitive food industry market, to set technological standards and to expand market share step by step.
2022
Setting standards in the food industry
Eugen Theis Vakuum carries out the design, installation and commissioning of the most modern vacuum systems within the Tönnies Group. The systems are based on Atlas Copco's VSD+ technology with GHS and DRB systems and set new standards in efficiency and operational reliability.
Today
Experience, growth and service expertise
To date, more than ten state-of-the-art central vacuum systems with the latest technology have been planned and successfully commissioned. At the same time the service offering has been consistently expanded – including the introduction of ServicePLUS – to support customers even more comprehensively, predictably and sustainably.
