LUMEN celebrates its 60th birthday

Innovative products, leading technology and top quality: LUMEN has represented these values for over half a century.

Our success story started in 1962 – just a few years after the Ruckdeschel family, owners of the internationally operating IREKS Group, imported soft ice cream machines from America to Germany for the first time and founded LUMEN GmbH as a subsidiary of their family business.

A lot has happened since then, but LUMEN has not changed in its basic understanding. To this day, we see ourselves as a technology leader and innovator in the industry. Together with all our employees, we are pleased about the decades of continuity in the markets and about the many customers we have had the pleasure to accompany over many years and decades. At LUMEN, we place particular value on direct customer contact, including our advisory and service perfor-mance, which has been steadily expanded in recent years.

Together with our partner, we are looking positively into the future and look forward to continuing to offer leading technology for the best soft ice cream quality with a new, future-oriented generation of machines as well as with modern services and products adapted to customer needs.
