A FAMILY BUSINESS
In 1908, Hermann Sewerin, then 24 years old, established a small fitter workshop in Gutersloh, Germany. Initially, he manufactured door locks, door handles, nameplates, and markers. Following WWI, Hermann Sewerin produced milk centrifuges and carburetors for automotive and motorcycle production. Joined by brothers Fritz and Wilhelm, the company entered the commercial register in 1923 as Vulkan-Werk GmbH.
