Clear number 1 on the ropeway world market

Ever since the start, Doppelmayr has been considered very innovative: Already 120 years ago the company founder Konrad Doppelmayr built modern and reliable machines. This tradition carried on without interruption. Today, Doppelmayr is world quality and technology leader in ropeway engineering.

This top position is also reflected in the results of the business year 2011/12. Turnovers increased by 10 million to EUR 628 million. The number of employees worldwide increased by 3.7% (Austria plus 6.5% to 1,161).

Ropeways for winter sports regions are the main contributors to the turnovers. Parallel to this, the market for ropeways in urban areas develops with increasing dynamic. During the period covered by the report, Doppelmayr completed several urban ropeways in South America and Europe, more are under construction and in the process of planning.

Doppelmayr faces the challenges on the global markets with customer-oriented product innovations as well as continuous adaptation of the production methods and the materials used to the latest state-of-the-art. This way Doppelmayr can expand its position as technology and innovation leader in the tourist and urban ropeway sector as well as in the field of transport installations and create a solid foundation for a sustainable company success.

Doppelmayr is optimally positioned to persist throughout the coming years. The company management expects good operating results with an increasing turnover for the business year 2012/13.
