HST USA
A new location is taking shape
Some time ago, we spoke with Ken in our journal about HST USA. At the time, the focus was on the development of the U.S. location, the opportunities in the market, and the motivation behind this important step. Now, this journey can also be traced visually: New photos document how, step by step, a functional, modern facility has emerged from an empty space.
What initially looked like a typical commercial space has been transformed over the past few months with great care and a clear understanding of the practical requirements of everyday work. The photo gallery shows the entire process—from the initial site visit through the renovation, painting, and flooring work, all the way to the installation of signage and the official opening in early May, together with CEO Florian Hanke.
This clearly demonstrates just how thoroughly the location was planned with its future purpose in mind. The result is not simply a new office, but a work environment that combines functionality, professionalism, and customer focus. The demands of day-to-day business were taken into account from the very beginning, allowing for the creation of an environment that reliably supports productive work.
Ken supported and drove this expansion in the U.S. with great personal dedication. It became immediately clear that the intensive planning was paying off shortly after the opening: the first customer meetings were scheduled as early as the first week. The agenda included a detailed presentation of the HST portfolio as well as on-site product tests for a major supplier in the aerospace tooling sector.
This is a promising start for HST. The new location is not only officially open, but is also being used from the very beginning as a place for exchange, consultation, and concrete collaboration.
The development of HST USA demonstrates how a strategic idea, combined with dedication, precision, and perseverance, can give rise to a location that has been substantial from the very beginning. We would like to extend our special thanks to Ken, whose tremendous dedication made this development possible.
