About SIKO GmbH

SIKO is a German manufacturer of sensors and positioning systems headquartered in Buchenbach near Freiburg, with more than 60 years of history since its founding in 1963. The company began with handwheels and mechanical digital position indicators and has grown into a global supplier of angle and length measurement technology for industry and mechanical engineering. Its range covers rotary sensors — including absolute encoders for motor feedback in handling automation and robotics — linear sensors, electronic position indicators, positioning systems and compact actuators for automated format adjustment, plus safety-rated and mobile-machine sensors such as SIL2/PLd inclinometers and inertial measurement units. SIKO states on its homepage that it employs 300 people worldwide and has a global presence in 50 countries, supported by five subsidiaries and around 60 agencies; an additional German site in Bad Krozingen produces its electronic products, and a Swiss site in Cham also manufactures.

Typical applications span packaging and woodworking machinery, pharmaceutical production, mobile and agricultural machinery, and drive technology, where repeatable position feedback and guided format changeovers reduce set-up time. For directory partners, SIKO is a mid-sized, owner-managed sensor supplier for machine builders that need robust German-made measurement and positioning components, from a single encoder to a complete monitored format-adjustment system.

GlobleMatch Trust Signals

A directory that doesn’t sell stars. Trust Signals are built only from verifiable facts — never from anonymous ratings, and never for sale. There is no single hidden score.

Public information coverage	9 of 9 fields on the standard profile could be filled from public sources. This counts how much public information exists about the company — not how good the company is. The nine fields are listed in the methodology. Claiming the profile lets the company complete the remaining fields itself.
Last verified	9 November 2026 — facts on this profile were checked against the sources listed below. Profiles are re-checked on a published 90-day cycle; this date is never quietly refreshed.

Claim this profile to unlock response record, directory tenure and peer endorsements. The full methodology — what each signal measures and how it is calculated — is published in the Trust Signals methodology, including a change log.
