Set up as a three-man operation, HBE has developed into an international supplier of hydraulic components and oil tanks since its foundation in 1984. The subsequent years saw specialists from fluid technology merge together around the company to form Echterhage Holding.
HBE’s success is based on the highest technical quality standards, comprehensive advice, and reliable customer service. With a history of more than 35 years on the market, HBE has established itself as one of the leading manufacturers of components for fluid and drive technology. In addition to steel and aluminum oil tanks, the company’s portfolio includes shaft and flange couplings as well as an extensive range of top-quality hydraulic components.
