Heidelberg Wallbox awarded Top Brand seal

Germany’s electromobility market is growing strongly, as demonstrated by the latest figures from the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA). Over 23,000 new cars with all-electric drives were licensed in October 2020, representing a market share of 8.4 percent. As sales of electric cars increase, so do charging infrastructure requirements. The investment grant available from the KfW bank with effect from November 2020 also underlines how vital the extensive expansion of charging stations is. A recent end customer survey by the Bonn-based market and economic research company EUPD Research clearly demonstrated the importance of private charging stations. Just under 2,000 existing and potential electric car owners took part in the survey, 82 percent of whom indicated that having a private charging station was “important” or “very important” in the context of their purchase. Around 700 of the respondents already own an electric vehicle and those among them who had installed a Wallbox from Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) said they were highly satisfied with the product and would recommend it to others. On this basis, the Heidelberg Wallbox is being awarded EUPD Research’s Top Brand Wallbox seal, which the company gives to makes and products identified as top brands in independent customer surveys.

“We’re delighted to have been awarded the Top Brand Wallbox seal for the Heidelberg Wallbox systems, as it reflects the high level of user satisfaction with our charging solutions. The positive feedback from our customers underlines that Heidelberg has established itself on the key future market of electromobility with a competitive portfolio,” says Ulrich Grimm, Head of Electromobility at Heidelberg.
