Yesterday

Franz Dietrich founded the company in Hanover in 1947. In the beginning, seven employees provided fresh coats of paint in industrial plants and corrosion protection for high-voltage pylons. Word of the small company's efficiency soon spread, and in the early 1950s the first major commissions were landed from companies such as Preussen-Elektra in Hanover (now E.ON), HEW in Hamburg (now Vattenfall) and VW in Kassel.

The size of the company grew to 250 employees, and their further qualification allowed the range of services to expand to include structural protection. The company started up international operations after the founder's daughter, Hella Suppan, assumed control of operations in 1974, with Friedrich Suppan taking over responsibility for management. Dietrich now won major contracts from countries in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Africa as well as the Soviet Union. Continuing specialisation allowed the company to perform what was until then a unique refurbishment project in the nuclear power plant in Brokdorf in 1989.
