After 46 years our dear colleague Michael Goebel retired earlier this month. He started with us in 1970 and has designed hundreds of boilers, including the 6,000th ERK boiler in 2016. His career spanned more than 4,000 ERK boiler references and we believe it’s very hard to find someone who can match his expertise. Luckily, we will not lose his expertise at once as he agreed to train our young engineers and provide his know-how on a part-time basis. We wish Michael all the best for his retirement and are looking forward to see him around the office occasionally.
