DANGO & DIENENTHAL relies on a tradition of more than 140 years. In 1865 the craftsmen August Dango und Louis Dienenthal founded the company as a non-ferrous foundry. Around the turn of the last century DANGO & DIENENTHAL started to manufacturespecialized machinery for the metallurgical industry. Qualified engineers, a modern mechanical workshop and a specialized assembly shop care for reliable quality andtheconstant development of our product range.

The products manufactured by DANGO & DIENENTHAL are closely linked to the tradition of iron ore mining in the Siegerland.

This tradition goes back to the Celtic habitation in the region, approx. 2500 years ago. Excavations have discovered smelting furnaces made of mud and located on steep slopes which used the natural upward air current as combustion air and were thus able to attain smelting temperatures in excess of 1000°C. The long tradition of iron works in the Siegerland came to an end by closing of the last mine in 1962.
