About MANN

In 1938, Adolf Mann and Dr. Erich Hummel were the owners of the textile company Bleyle in Ludwigsburg. Shortly after the outbreak of the Second World War, the Stuttgart piston producer Mahle offered the production of engine filters to the textile company, an offer which is taken up and which laid the foundations for their company to be: MANN+HUMMEL.

Pioneering innovations and expansion 

Innovative products “made by MANN+HUMMEL” marked the way towards the company becoming a development partner and original equipment manufacturer for the automotive industry. Improvements to the consumption and performance of engines and reduction of pollutant emissions gained importance. The filtration expert from Ludwigsburg also increased the use of plastic in its production. This enabled weight saving and more flexible product designs . A further important innovation was the introduction of a lost core technology for injection molding. This allowed the seamless production of complex intake manifolds. The result was the manufacturing of the first series production of intake manifolds made from plastic, the parallel development of oil filter housings in plastic, and also complex module solutions. In addition to the automotive sector, MANN+HUMMEL started beim active in the area of hydraulics and liquid filtration. 

The issues of environmental protection and recycling took on an ever more important role beginning in the mid-1990s. MANN+HUMMEL met the new requirements at an early stage with measures in the production process and the use of materials.
