The story of Naaktgeboren
With more than 75 years of experience, Naaktgeboren is a leading innovator in the field of vacuum printing technology. Since the launch of our first vacuum pressure tank truck in 1949, we have continuously strived for progress and innovation. In 1960, we introduced the “medium pressure silo wagon” for pneumatic transport of dry substances, which was a milestone in our commitment to improved transport solutions.26-06-2025
