The Endress+Hauser Group is mourning its founder Dr Georg H Endress. The entrepreneur died on 14 December 2008 after a brief, grave illness a few weeks before his 85th birthday, surrounded by his family in Arlesheim, Switzerland.

The core of Georg H Endress's life’s work is the establishment of the Endress+Hauser Group. From small beginnings, the Group developed into an international company for industrial measurement and automation engineering with over 8300 employees worldwide.

Georg H Endress had withdrawn from business operations in 1995, handing the leadership of the company group to his second oldest son, Klaus Endress.
