Rittal GmbH & Co. KG
Rittal GmbH & Co. KG is a registered legal entity registered in Germany under HRA 6126 Wetzlar, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. The company was incorporated on 1 April 1962 and lists its registered address as Herborn, Germany. 1 shareholder is on record for Rittal GmbH & Co. KG, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 1 October 2026.

Directors and officers of Rittal GmbH & Co. KG

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Those 10 subsidiaries span Germany, United Arab Emirates, China, South Korea, Japan, Colombia, and 2 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. One of the 10 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
