Company profile
Tradition meets modernity
Firmly rooted in the region of Hesse, we have been developing and producing protective and connecting elements as well as cable glands and customised special articles made of plastic at our site in Battenberg (Eder) for over 85 years. The connection to the region is a tradition for us.
We combine all steps under one roof: from the idea, article and tool development to the finished series product, if necessary with approvals. We use the latest technologies, such as 3D printing, Moldflow simulations, CAD/CAM, 3D measuring projector. With our own toolmaking department, we can also implement individual solutions in the shortest possible time.

VISION

CENA is always developing new, innovative plastic products for and with existing and potential customers. In this way, we open up new markets and manufacture products for tomorrow.
Mission
Driving innovation. Enter into strong partnerships. Staying curious.
We develop technical solutions for our customers' needs, implement them in a new way and thus lay the foundation for a long-term, strategic partnership with development potential. Our customers can always rely on the quality of our products and the service all around.
Our employees, most of whom have been with us for many years, are motivated and team- and customer-oriented; we are there for each other and thus form the basis of a creative environment from which we and our customers benefit.
PHILOSOPHY
Technological Innovations for Resource-Conscious Production.
Since our company was founded, we have been developing and manufacturing technical plastic solutions while continuously optimizing our production processes. Efficient resource use is firmly integrated into our operational and manufacturing processes. The following measures show how we put this into practice in our day-to-day operations.
In addition, we generate our own electricity using our photovoltaic system and use energy efficiently throughout our operational and manufacturing processes.
More than half of our employees ride company e-bikes, which are charged during the day with our PV system.
Production waste is reprocessed and added to certain product groups as recyclate. Materials are carefully selected and used.
Our employees and their health are important to us, we have ergonomic working environments throughout the company.
WHAT OUR EMPLOYEES SAY
"We have many new product ideas in the pipeline that we will be introducing to the market shortly. With these, we want to address existing and new customers, and I am very much looking forward to that."
Armin StammTechnical Sales Manager 
"I don't take for granted in the working world the honest, appreciative and supportive cooperation that I have experienced here for many years. Being challenged professionally and being able to experience how one's own ideas are desired and appreciated and how this promotes personal development makes the perfect mixture for me.
Uwe WillstumpfProduction 
"I love the personal and warm atmosphere, both within the team and across teams. We have our finger on the pulse with our products & ideas and allow emerging technologies and methods to become part of everyday life."
Karl SchnarrConstruction 
"I am enthusiastic about the fact that every employee is seen as an independent personality and not as material or a worker who can be replaced at any time. Regular contact and exchange with the employees is just as important as working every day to optimise the processes and products for the customers.
Alina MüllerTeam Lead Internal Sales 
"Every trainee is part of the team from the very beginning, they are perfectly trained, challenged and supported. The working atmosphere is very familiar and working in a team inspires and motivates me, because together we can achieve set goals."
Bianca VogtQuality Assurance 
"The tasks and requirements are very diverse and structured. The insights into the processes of product development up to approval always fascinate me anew."
Leon RichterQuality Assurance 
"Here, no distinction is made between trainees and apprentices. This appreciation is very important here among the colleagues. The team is like a big family, everyone helps each other and everyone sticks together. This makes the work even more fun and you can learn and develop in a more practical way."
Elena WirachowskiAdministration
