After the confusion of the Second World War, the production continued at the old location at Kronprinzenstaße in Remscheid (200 m²) with only one employee, however due to continuous investments the production facility increased and the manufacturing plant grew accordingly. Finally the new production plant in the "Überfeld" Industrial area was built and here the whole production plant is concentrated in an area of 3.450 m².
In 1974 the current company "Wilh. Becker GmbH & Co.KG, HAHNREITER Gewindetechnik" was founded by a merger with another company called "Ernst Birgden HAHNREITER Präzisionswerkzeuge". Both the products and manufacturing processes have dramatically improved since the near era and various types of taps have been researched and developed to work all types of materials under different conditions.
