Before the death of the ancestor Andreas, his children had begun to take over. Today, Hans Peter, 71, and his younger brothers and sisters, Ludige, Ava Mel Steele and Gersild Seth, lead the enterprise. Hans Peter Steele is not only the parent of Steele Group today, but also a flag. It was Hans, who always wore rimless glasses and combed his hair neatly back, who turned the enterprise his father had given him into a world group. It doesn't mean that you should be the king of the industry if your enterprise invents something. For a long time, Steele was not the leader of the power saw market. Today, this group is not only the overlord of the power saw market, but also has increased the production of high-pressure cleaning machines, lawn mowers and other garden machinery. Today, the company has more than 7000 employees in more than 30 countries around the world, and its sales reached 1.5 billion euros in 2001. The Steels not only invented the electric saw - power saw, but also their power saw is still the world's top brand, which is not easy. It is constant invention and innovation that gives the power saw here a lasting life. Let's take a few examples: the world's first electric saw was invented in 1926; In 1950, the world's first gasoline powered saw was invented; In 1959, the sensational StillContra series power saw was launched; In 1972, comprehensive supporting safety facilities were launched; In 1989, he invented the world's first power saw with catalytic device; In 1995, the power saw with inert rotating brake was introduced. Hans is a man who doesn't like to be vigorous. But for three years, he has become a person who continues to stir up in Germany: he once served as the president of the German Industrial and Commercial Conference (DIHT). During that time, he was an important person in Germany, and naturally he could no longer be invisible. It was not until he was 70 years old that he stepped down from the position of president and moved to the second line of the board of supervisors. He promoted Harald Jobbs, who was neither a family member nor a member of the company, as president, setting a precedent for the company. At the age of 50, he married again, so today he has seven children. At ordinary times, he is a calm and aloof person. Only on Sundays, he will make a big noise: he is used to driving his BMW motorcycle to the countryside. Maybe he can't live without the sound of the motor of the power saw. Maybe, because his father prohibited him from riding a motorcycle when he was young, he would like to experience the taste of rebellion when he was old? Anyway, this is his way to relax his nerves. Hans and his siblings almost only heard praise, whether as the president of the German Chamber of Commerce and Industry or as the head of the enterprise. Of course, a small number of attacks are inevitable. For example, feminists attacked his company and said that there were too many naked skin and too few electric saws on the company's annual calendar; Or, environmental protection organizations objected to his assumption of the presidency of the German Chamber of Commerce and Industry, because the power saw produced by Steele Group was also involved in the action of "murdering forests". The more serious problem is that his company has not yet fully paid the compensation for employing forced laborers during the Third Reich.
