Here, Heinz G. Sieg founded the company as a small GmbH \u2013 with the aim of producing compatible printer accessories that impress in terms of quality and performance. What started with three employees at the time has continued to develop thanks to a great deal of passion, technical know-how and entrepreneurial vision.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the achievement of a market-leading position as a full-range supplier, KMP became a public limited company in 1999, an important step in the company&#8217;s development. Under the joint management of Heinz G. Sieg and his son Jan-Michael Sieg, the family business grew into one of the leading suppliers in Europe \u2013 today with over 500 employees who have supported this path for many years. <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The product portfolio has also developed over time: a pure ribbon manufacturer became a company that focused on new printing technologies early and decisively. Laser and InkJet printers became the core of the product world, and ink cartridges and toner cartridges now account for the majority of sales. <\/p>\n<div><span>A key feature of the company&#8217;s DNA is the exceptionally high level of vertical integration. Many production and development steps take place under one roof \u2013 an advantage that makes KMP more independent of suppliers and enables particularly high product safety. <\/span><\/div>\n<div><span><br \/>\nThe company began its internationalization as early as 1990. With the establishment of its first subsidiaries, KMP strengthened its presence in Europe and is now represented in France, Poland, Portugal, Romania and the Czech Republic in addition to Germany. This expansion underlines the ambition to work closely with the market and the needs of trading partners.  <\/span><\/div>\n<div><span><br \/>\nWhat still characterizes KMP today is a clear attitude: loyalty to specialist retailers, manufacturing expertise and a consistent brand policy. Behind this is a strong team that contributes to the satisfaction of business partners with a comprehensive service concept, technical expertise and an agile research and development department. <\/span><\/div>\n<div><span><br \/>\nKMP has thus been a family business for almost four decades, combining tradition with vision \u2013 and still pursuing the goal of developing high-quality printing solutions that impress.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container type_sticky\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"w-image us_custom_633d2c68 align_none\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kmp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/KMP_Historie_H2-min-1024x641.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kmp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/KMP_Historie_H2-min-1024x641.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kmp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/KMP_Historie_H2-min-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kmp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/KMP_Historie_H2-min-1320x826.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/www.kmp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/KMP_Historie_H2-min-scaled-e1766434917421.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_medium\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_grid cols_3-2 laptops-cols_inherit tablets-cols_2 mobiles-cols_1 valign_middle type_default reversed stacking_default\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><h2 class=\"w-text\"><span class=\"w-text-h\"><span class=\"w-text-value\">We take on social responsibility: locally &amp; internationally<\/span><\/span><\/h2><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>As a family business, responsibility is not an addition for us, but a firmly anchored attitude.
