Based on preliminary data, the ElringKlinger Group recorded sales revenue of EUR1.32bn (US$1.41bn) in the 2014 financial year.

Organically, that is, eliminating the effects of foreign currency translation and changes in the scope of consolidation, sales revenue increased by 11.2%, despite the malaise afflicting vehicle markets in both Brazil and Russia.

ElringKlinger benefited from strong structural growth in many of its product groups aimed at CO2 reduction and expanded at a percentage rate that was in excess of growth in terms of global vehicle production.

The full consolidation of ElringKlinger Marusan Corporation contributed EUR23.1m to Group revenue in 2014.
