Schulz, a genuinely Joinville industry, celebrates its 61st anniversary this June 12th, marking a journey that dates back to the small metallurgical company founded in 1963 by Heinz Schulz and his visionary entrepreneurial friends.

Among the founding partners were Ronald Braatz, Herbert Theilacker, Norberto Ritzmann, Guilherme Urban, Gert Schulz and Ovandi Rosenstock, current president of Schulz, who has participated in this success story since the beginning.

Since then, the company has achieved leadership in its markets, consolidating its presence in more than 70 countries around the world. This milestone of six decades of achievements honors the vision and pioneering spirit that gave rise to Schulz’s trajectory.

Today, the company is consolidating itself as a pillar of the local and national economy, employing more than 3,500 employees and contributing to the development of Brazilian industry.

Its legacy is marked by continuous investment in technology and the incessant search for excellence in all its products and services.

Standing out as the largest manufacturer of air compressors in Latin America, it is also recognized as a global reference in solutions for trucks, agricultural machinery and construction equipment. Faithful to its legacy of evolution, the company looks to the future with optimism and determination, ready to overcome the challenges that will come and continue to write its success story for many more years.
