We are a “partner for trade”
In the annual Zentralverband Hartwarenhandel e.V. (Central Association of the German Hardware Trade) ballot to elect the best supplier in hardware trade, HECO is regularly among the top positions.
For more than a decade, HECO has been among the top 2 in the field of fastening. HECO gained first place again in the election of 2017 and can celebrate its leading position now for the tenth time. The very good overall result is down to consistently positive evaluations in the individual categories of retailers loyalty, market-oriented price policy, sales support, product innovation and dealing with complaints.
We at HECO are proud of our repeated recognition and will continue to count on strong trade partners for sales and marketing in the future.

We are “innovative thanks to research”
You can’t discover anything new without research. The Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft (German association for the promotion of education, science and innovation) regularly investigates the German research and innovation system and is always on the lookout for companies with a particular dedication to research and development. The intensive research and development work carried out by HECO and our self-image as a manufacturer brand was also recently acknowledged by the Stifterverband with the awarding of the “Innovativ durch Forschung” seal of quality.
HECO remains a manufacturer and we will continue to back our own ideas, our own developments and our own production in the future.
