Cloppenburg, 4.8.2015. For precisely 82 years, the globally-operating manufacturer of connectors and contact systems with in-house development and production facilities has been headquartered in Schalksmühle in Germany’s Sauerland region. However, the largest production facility of the Lumberg Group is in Cloppenburg and was built 45 years ago already. More than 1,000 young people have completed an apprenticeship in a variety of occupational fields at the family business which currently is run by the third generation. This year, Lumberg welcomes eleven new trainees, six of whom at the facility in Cloppenburg and five at the company headquarters in Schalksmühle.

In Cloppenburg, Matthias Genschel and Kevin Dubhorn will start their training to become a process mechanic; Andre Kortüm will commence his apprenticeship as an industrial mechanic, and Denis Bröring starts training as a mechatronics engineer while Daniel Lohrey and Walter Binefeld decided to take up an apprenticeship as an industrial mechanic.

All trainees received a warm welcome at the beginning of the week at the respective sites. For a knowledgeable and sound professional future, the trainees will go through a regular rotation system to acquaint themselves with the different fields, departments and locations, in line with their respective occupational profile. They will familiarize themselves with relevant matters that relate to the products made by Lumberg and learn about working in different team structures as well as the flows of a modern industrial Operation.
