My 60th birthday is a special occasion for me to pause and reflect on what we have achieved together – and at the same time to look ahead to what still lies before us.

When I look back today on my journey and on the development of the PREIS Group, there is one thing I feel above all: deep gratitude.

What defines us: people who take action

For me, the PREIS Group is a community where people take responsibility, think ahead, take action, and build something together.

Over the years, I have witnessed how ideas become concrete solutions, how challenges turn into opportunities, and how collaboration creates real strength. That is exactly what defines our PREIS Group.

Behind every project, every product, and every success are people – all of you. Your commitment, your dedication, and your drive to go one step further form the foundation of our shared success.

Responsibility and the future

As CEO, I see it as my responsibility not only to secure today’s success, but also to set the course for tomorrow. The challenges of our time – particularly in the fields of energy, industry, and sustainability – require clear decisions, innovative strength, and cohesion.

I am convinced that with our expertise, our passion, and our team spirit, we are ideally positioned to remain successful in the future.

Personal reflections

A milestone birthday is always a moment to stop and reflect. For me, however, it is above all a moment to say “thank you.”

Thank you for your trust.
Thank you for your loyalty.
Thank you for the many conversations, ideas, and shared successes.

I know that what we have achieved would not have been possible without all of us working together.

The future belongs to us – together

I am firmly convinced that the best is yet to come. The challenges will not become smaller – but that is precisely where our opportunity lies.

With our experience, our innovative strength, and above all our strong team, we will continue to take the next steps successfully.

Let us continue to be bold, seize opportunities, and shape the future of the PREIS Group together.

I look forward to everything that lies ahead – together with you.

Thank you very much.
Peter Jägersberger, CEO

Strong investment in energy infrastructure

The global energy transition and the growing demand for electricity are driving increased demand for high-performance energy infrastructure. Transformers are a central component of modern power grids – and this is precisely where the PREIS Group comes in.

With the expansion of the PREIS Sevnica site in Slovenia, the PREIS Group is strengthening its position as a leading manufacturer of transformer housings in Europe and is responding specifically to rising demand in the energy sector.

Expansion of production capacity in Sevnica

The investment includes:

• the construction of new production halls
• the expansion of existing production areas
• the use of modern production and automation technologies

The aim is to nearly double production capacity while further increasing efficiency and quality.

These measures will enable PREIS to continue delivering complex energy infrastructure projects reliably and to the highest quality standards.

The PREIS Group as a key partner in the energy transition

The transformer housings produced by PREIS are essential for:

• the expansion of renewable energy
• the stability of power grids
• secure energy distribution worldwide

Through customised solutions and the highest manufacturing standards, PREIS positions itself as an important partner for international energy projects.

New jobs and regional value creation

The expansion of the site will create around 80 new jobs, particularly for skilled professionals.

This not only strengthens the competitiveness of PREIS but also makes an important contribution to the economic development of the Sevnica region.

Future-oriented strategy of the PREIS Group

The investment underlines the long-term strategy of the PREIS Group:

• focus on sustainable energy projects
• expansion of international markets
• continuous innovation and technological leadership

With the expansion in Sevnica, the PREIS Group is ideally positioned to actively seize the opportunities of the energy transition and secure the future of energy supply.

With this investment, GIPRO ensures that the continuously increasing requirements for quality, documentation, and process stability can be reliably met in the long term. In addition, the new control technology contributes to higher plant availability as well as more efficient monitoring and optimisation of production processes.

The modernised processing plants supply several directly connected pressure gelation machines and therefore form a central interface within production. They make a significant contribution to an efficient, future-oriented, and consistently quality-driven production environment.

With our first participation in the Frauenthal EXPO, we deliberately took a new step – with the aim of presenting our FP PREIS® cast pipe system to a broad professional audience in Austria, establishing new contacts, and further expanding our presence in the domestic market.

From the very first day of the trade fair, it became clear: the EXPO is an ideal meeting point for exchange, innovation, and partnership-based collaboration.

Valuable discussions and new impulses

We were particularly pleased by the strong interest in our solutions and services. In numerous discussions with customers, partners, and industry representatives, we were able not only to share our expertise but also to gain valuable insights into current requirements and trends.

It is precisely this personal exchange that makes trade fairs so important for us – it builds trust, opens up new perspectives, and lays the foundation for future cooperation.

PREIS as a reliable partner

As part of the PREIS Group, quality, precision, and reliability are at the core of our actions. At the Frauenthal EXPO, we were once again able to demonstrate what we stand for: customised solutions, technical expertise, and a strong team for our customers.

A successful start with a view to the future

Our first participation at the Frauenthal EXPO in Vienna was a complete success for us – and at the same time the beginning of something new. The positive feedback and the many new contacts confirm that we are on the right path.

We look forward to further developing the relationships we have established and to continuing to be part of this exciting platform in the future.

Many thanks to all visitors for their interest and the inspiring discussions!

I was born and raised in Pernitz in the Piesting Valley – the very place where PREIS Group’s head office is located today. The paths I used to take to school as a child now lead me to the office. I have known many of my colleagues for years – not only from work, but also as neighbours, fellow club members or friends. This close connection to the region is much more than a sense of home to me – it is part of my identity and a cornerstone of our entrepreneurial success.

What I have learned in my career is this: local roots and international growth are not mutually exclusive. On the contrary – they reinforce one another. I am a committed European. I believe in the idea of an open, connected and strong Europe. And I am firmly convinced that our regional roots create the stability we need to continue developing internationally.

Why Our Roots Make Us Strong

As a family-owned company, we carry responsibility – not only for our economic actions, but also for the people at our locations. Whether in Austria, Croatia, Slovenia or Bosnia and Herzegovina, our local teams are deeply rooted in their regions.

Many of our employees have been working with us for decades. For me, this loyalty and continuity are an expression of trust and a truly lived corporate culture. Unsere Werte – Verlässlichkeit, Verantwortung und Bodenständigkeit – sind nicht auf dem Papier entstanden. Sie sind aus unserer Geschichte gewachsen und prägen unser tägliches Handeln. Sie geben uns Orientierung – und sie verbinden uns, über Länder- und Sprachgrenzen hinweg.

Globally Active, Locally Rooted

Today, we supply customers in more than 40 countries and operate in highly specialised niche markets. This requires international experience, intercultural understanding and technical excellence. Yet precisely within this global complexity, it is essential to have a clear stance.

What our customers value about PREIS Group is not only the quality of our products. It is also our authentic approach: our reliability, our clear commitment and the trustworthiness of our word. These are all values that connect us across all borders.

Values as a Compass in Changing Times

The world is changing – rapidly, complexly and often unpredictably. In times like these, we need clarity about what truly matters. For me, these are reliability, respect, technical expertise and a genuine commitment to creating long-term added value – for our customers, our employees and our partners.

Our regional identity is not a contradiction to international thinking. It is our inner compass. It helps us make decisions with foresight – while keeping our feet firmly on the ground. That is exactly what makes the difference to me.

My Personal Conclusion

I am convinced that sustainable success is created when we do not forget our roots, but consciously use them as a strength. Our international relationships have shaped me, just as many of our long-standing employees have. They give us stability, trust and identity – especially in a world that is constantly changing. At the same time, we must never lose sight of the bigger picture. Openness, curiosity and European thinking drive us forward. For me, the connection between regional roots and an international perspective is not a compromise, but our recipe for success.

Especially in today’s world, where social tensions and geopolitical challenges are increasing, I firmly believe that intercultural openness and mutual respect could pave the way for solutions in many areas. If we are willing to learn from one another, build bridges and understand diversity as a strength, then we have a real opportunity for the future – not only economically, but also as a society.
