The German family-owned machine tool manufacturer and laser-technology specialist Trumpf reports florishing business figures and an increase of its German and international workforce by 450 in 2006, that follow the creation of yet another 450 jobs in 2005. About half of these new jobs will be located in Germany.
Trumpf employs a workforce of about 4,000 in Germany and of 2,480 in European locations and overseas.
