OEKAMETALL becomes OEKA

Since the beginning of the 1950s our company has been called OEKAMETALL. The first four letters represent the names of the two company founders, Georg Oehlhorn and Sally Kahn. The second part reflects the metal products OEKAMETALL has mainly manufactured in that time, e.g. technical parts (punchings and deep-drawn parts) as well as cosmetic packaging (caps, lipsticks, etc.). With the introduction of the injection molding technique at the beginning of the 1960s, plastics have become more and more important, especially for our cosmetic industry products, but will also play a central role in technical parts. In the future, we will make even better use of our broad experience in both metal and plastics processing, surface finishing and assembly systems to grow equally in any of our three business areas; OEKABEAUTY, OEKATECH, and OEKAMED.

OEKAMETALL becomes OEKA

Many of our business partners, mainly potential customers, who do not or hardly know us, might be confused by the name OEKAMETALL, which gives the impression that we solely produce metal products. For these reasons we have decided to change, as from 1 May 2014, and in the year of its 100th anniversary, our company’s name to:

OEKA Oehlhorn GmbH & Co. KG

Under our new name we start now – at full speed ahead – the next century of our company.
