Our Headquarter in Oberkirch, Germany, is home to the Group‘s high-tech centre of excellence. It is here that we develop the innovative products and processes that serve as a Benchmark for the other Locations.

Since March 2016, Progress-Werk Oberkirch AG (PWO) has been certified as an "Authorized Economic Operator" (AEO) of the European Union for customs simplification/safety (AEO-F). This identifies PWO as a particularly reliable and trustworthy partner (Authorized Economic Operator), enabling it to take advantage of special concessions granted within the framework of the customs clearance process.
These include, inter alia:
- Fewer physical and document-based controls (all forms of AEO).
- Higher-priority examination of consignments which need to be checked (all forms of AEO).
- When an application is made to have the utilization of simplifications under customs law approved, the prerequisites checked when the AEO certificate was originally issued are not checked for a second time (for AEO-C and AEO-F).
- Reduced dataset for the transmission of summary entry and exit declarations (for AEO-S and AEO-F).
- Prior notification of impending checks (for AEO-S and AEO-F).
- Improved customs cooperation.
- Recognition of AEO status as a quality characteristic (trustworthy business partner).
