40th anniversary - Innovative extraction technology since 1985
Summer party under the motto Family & Friends
2025 is for EVO-PRODUCTS a very special year: the company is celebrating its 40th anniversary. For four decades EVO-PRODUCTS has stood for quality, innovation and partnership – values that are not only appreciated by customers and business partners, but also unite the people in the company.
1985
Horst Blankenburg lays the foundations for the company and starts as a sole trader under the name “Blankenburg Reinigungsmaschinen”. From his private home in Sinzig-Westum, he trades in wet/dry vacuum cleaners and high-pressure cleaners. Early on, he focused on quality and customer proximity, which drove the success of his young company.
1991
As the business grows, so does the need for space. In order to meet the increasing requirements, the first new warehouse with an integrated office is built in the Remagen industrial estate at Dieselstrasse 10a. This marks the first major step towards expansion.
1997
A generational change is imminent: Volker Blankenburg takes over the management and leads the company into the future with fresh ideas. The focus is now increasingly on strategic growth and the further development of the company.
2001
A decisive milestone: the sole proprietorship is transformed into EVO-PRODUCTS Blankenburg GmbH, reflecting the change to a modern, efficient company. At the same time, the company moves to larger premises at Dieselstraße 3 in the Remagen industrial estate. This change creates the basis for future innovations and an expansion of the product portfolio.
2006
The company sets a new standard in cleaning and extraction technology with the development and start of production of the EVOTEC mobile high-performance industrial vacuum cleaners. This in-house production opens up new market opportunities and establishes the EVOTEC brand as an innovative manufacturer in the industry.
2008
The high demand for the new industrial vacuum cleaners makes it necessary to expand the production and storage areas. With additional capacity, the company is ensuring that it can react flexibly to increasing customer interest.
2011
EVO-PRODUCTS is awarded the Rhineland-Palatinate Innovation Prize for its innovative strength. This award confirms the path we have taken and underlines the importance of our own development work.
2012
The next technological step follows with the start of production of stationary extraction technology. This expansion of the product range strengthens the company’s position in the field of industrial extraction systems and opens up new customer segments.
2015
As the company grows, so does the team. In order to meet the new requirements, the office space is expanded with an extension, creating better working conditions and space for further growth.
2018
The increasing demand for EVO-PRODUCTS solutions leads to the construction of an additional production hall and warehouse. This lays the foundation for continued success in the future.The increasing demand for EVO-PRODUCTS solutions leads to the construction of an additional production hall and warehouse.

Under the motto “Family and Friends”, this year’s summer party was bigger than ever before. More than 100 guests, including employees, families, friends and long-time companions, came together to celebrate this special anniversary. In addition to the pleasant exchange, attractions such as a large bouncy castle for the little ones and a varied catering program ensured a great atmosphere for all generations.
The celebration was not only a moment of gratitude for what has been achieved, but also a symbol of the cohesion that EVO-PRODUCTS has characterized for 40 years. Fittingly, the regional press also showed interest: Blick aktuell was on site and published a detailed report on the anniversary and the celebrations.
With this successful summer party EVO-PRODUCTS looks back proudly on the last 40 years – and at the same time optimistically to the future. Because one thing is clear: with the EVO family behind us, the success story will continue to be written in the future.
