An inventor and entrepreneur in the Swabian tradition, Alfred Kärcher was one of those inventor/entrepreneurs that Wurttemburg has brought forth in great numbers since the beginning of industrialization – illustrious names such as Robert Bosch and Gottlieb Daimier, or Count Zeppelin. They fought to realize their ideas with enormous diligence and commitment.

A former employee sees him in retrospect as follows: “When Alfred Kärcher was in his element, when we were running trials and tests, the atmosphere was simply exciting. He just couldn’t be stopped, he had a constant stream of new ideas.”
