Voith Hydro GmbH & Co KG

The history of Voith in St. Pölten dates back to 1903 when Voith established its first foreign subsidiary at this location in Lower Austria. Initially, paper machines, large grinding machines, and turbines were manufactured in the same way as at the headquarters in Heidenheim before the production of hydrodynamic transmissions for land vehicles began in 1932. Today, the divisions Voith Hydro and Voith Turbo operate in St. Pölten. As a full-line supplier for hydropower plant equipment, our product and service portfolio cover the entire lifecycle of new and existing hydropower plants. Voith Hydro in St. Pölten focuses on applications in the areas of irrigation, cooling water, and pumped storage. Alongside associated pumps, hydraulic torque converters are also manufactured on-site. Additionally, core turbine components are produced here, and generators, governors, and control cabinets are assembled.
