Informationen zum Hauptsitz

The company's headquarters are located in Tuttlingen, in southwestern Germany. This is the center of our mechanical and optical manufacture. The production facilities abroad are dedicated to the development and manufacture of special products. The high-technology video cameras, for example, are produced exclusively by KARL STORZ Imaging in Goleta (California), USA; optical and electronic components are manufactured at the plants in Tuttlingen and Schaffhausen (Switzerland); modern 3D systems are jointly developed by the Tuttlingen and Goleta plants; the glass fiber for light transmission and the flexible image bundles are produced in Charlton (Massachusetts), USA.

The Tuttlingen headquarters recently received an impressive new extension: the Entrée – an annex in the form of an optical lens, in glass and steel, tall, transparent and spacious. It unites several functions under one roof which used to be located in various places in the town. On an area of 14,000 square meters (150,000 square feet) everything is to be found that allows the company to react even more efficiently and rapidly to the wishes of the customer. On the basis of precisely determined logistics, the instruments, appliances and spare parts are kept in an immense storage facility.

This abundance of material is managed by special computer programs which ensure that all orders are rapidly processed. Information material and operating instructions are also stored here. This building also accommodates a huge number of endoscopic systems, which are dispatched to almost 2,000 congresses, workshops and seminars each year for demonstration purposes, then tested here once more and brought in line with the highest technological standards.
