Roth Industries

The company was founded in 1947 by Heinrich Roth as a craft business (manufacturing wash boiler stoves and garden slab plates). Under Manfred Roth (1939–2025), the founder's son, the company developed into an internationally active group of companies with locations in Europe, North and South America and China from 1962 onwards. In addition, the company expanded its business activities in the 1960s under Manfred Roth's leadership into the field of heating and sanitary technology, producing, for example, heating oil tanks. Due to the susceptibility of steel tanks to corrosion when storing heating oil, the company decided to enter the field of plastics technology (large blow-molding technology for storage systems for fuels and biofuels) in 1970. Roth Industries also expanded the sanitary segment with the development of complete shower cabins. In 1977, the company Schlesinger, a manufacturer of machinery for brush and broom production, was integrated into the group. The following year, the Roth Werke GmbH was founded.
