International Women’s Day – Cheers to us!

It really was a lovely day!Thank you, dear men of the HMP team, for your kind gestures. Many thanks to our managing director for the flowers and the invitation!

We really enjoyed the fun car journey, the absolutely wonderful meal and the unique show that followed at the GOP in Hanover. We are delighted that we are valued in person not just on this one day of the year, and we wish this from the bottom of our hearts for all women around the world!

We’re taking a break for Christmas!

As the year draws to a close, we’re all getting together one last time before we head off for the Christmas break. Our hard-working HMP elves have, of course, organised our traditional mini Christmas market! Mmm, mulled wine, waffles, crêpes, hot dogs… simply delicious!

16 December 2025

Merry Christmas!

For the HMP team, 2025 is a very special year – we are celebrating 35 years of HMP. Three and a half decades full of new challenges, experiences, innovations and partnerships that we are proud of! 

For the new year, we wish you health, happiness and continued success, and of course hope for positive developments and peace in this world.

We celebrate 35 years of HMP!

Every vision begins with the mental journey. Every success with practical implementation.

Visionary and activist, that′s what he was and still is, our company founder Dipl.-Ing. Klaus Hennings, who put all his eggs in one basket in July 1990, took full risks and firmly believed in his product. The company he started with his wife and three employees is now one of the market leaders in the industry worldwide.

For 25 years now, his son Dipl.-Ing. Gunnar Hennings has successfully managed the company. And we are very pleased, because the third generation of Hennings is already working in the company and is in the starting blocks to take over the baton.

Consistency, reliability and trust are still the values that make a company successful today. A company is only as good and successful as its employees and the way they treat each other, customers and business partners.

Today, HMP is one of the world′s market leaders for soil mechanics testing equipment. The test equipment, developed by our research & development department, such as the Light Weight Deflectometer HMP LFG and the Static Plate Load Tester HMP PDG are being used for compaction control and load bearing capacity tests during infrastructure construction works worldwide in more than 130 countries.

We are very happy that we are not only appreciated here on this one day of the year and wish this from the bottom of our hearts for all women in the world!

Muddy Angel Run in Magdeburg!

Yeah! At last! Muddy Angel Run in Magdeburg. The Elbe metropolis was transformed into a pink mud paradise and we were right in the middle of it! The HMP women started in the X-Muddi team on the 5km run course with exciting obstacles to slide, crawl, climb, dive and celebrate. We had a lot of fun and will definitely be back next year!

HMP team trains with dragon boat world champion!

Today we had the great opportunity to train as a team in a dragon boat from SC Magdeburg. Sandra Behnke, member of the ″Silverbacks Dragon Boat Team″ of SC Magdeburg and world champion (!) trained, steered and cheered us on enthusiastically. On the Zollelbe, our paddles hit the water in time and our boat shot along at lightning speed.

Many thanks to the SCM team for the great organisation and very warm support.

HMP barbecue party

Our HMP team barbecue has been a tradition for many years. The whole team, along with family and children, get together at the end of May to celebrate the start of summer. This time, unfortunately, we were unable to celebrate on our barbecue meadow for the first time because it was raining. Fortunately, it was cosy and above all dry in our production hall. We had a lot of fun together with music, delicious food and drinks... and we even had enough for a long lunch the next day :)

″Peace begins with a smile.″ Mother Teresa

We didn′t just smile, we laughed a lot at the curling event at the Festung Markt Magdeburg! Our special congratulations go to our winning team, the ″snow bunnies Andreas and Eddi″.

It′s currently high season for us. We are working on two calibration stands at different times so that our customers′ devices are ready for use again as quickly as possible after the annual inspection and calibration.

We sincerely wish you and us - not only for this year - good health and, above all, peace.

"There Is Nothing in the World So Irresistibly Contagious as Laughter and Good Humor" (Charles Dickens)

The sun is shining, we are healthy, our warehouses are full, sales and service are working at full speed!

We sincerely hope that you are also doing well, that you take a little break as often as possible and that you can see and enjoy the beautiful things in life. Often it is the little things in life that make us happy - not higher, faster, further.

We think of you and toast you - to a good time with health, happiness and continued success. We look forward to many new challenges and further cooperation with you!

Best regards from Magdeburg from your HMP team

the HMP team was able to laugh, eat and talk with family and friends at a barbecue evening.

With glorious barbecue weather, they chopped, stirred, grilled, listened attentively to the grill master′s instructions and simply enjoyed being able to celebrate together again informally..

We wish you equally fulfilled beautiful moments!

Sweet surprise - birthday cake for HMP

On its 30th anniversary, the HMP team pleased its director Gunnar Hennings with a large cake in the design of the company building! He insisted on cutting it personally. But of course it was enjoyed together.

″One cannot tie a knot with just one hand.″ True to this Mongolian proverb, at HMP we work hand in hand and appreciate each other. We are a team and we want to celebrate that this year by means of a common journey! We look forward to September.

"Polar Foxes" won on the ice!

Traditionally, the HMP team including family members met on the ice rink in the historic courtyard of the Festung Mark in Magdeburg for curling, mulled wine and hearty food. Out of eight teams, the "Polar Foxes" won just ahead of the "Powerwoman, Santa Clauses, Glitter Unicorns". Thereby we started sporty and happy into the New Year!

December 2019

The most beautiful presents can not be packed into wrapping paper - love, family, friends, laughter, health, happiness.

The HMP team met in the "Africambo Lodge" at Magdeburger Zoo for the Christmas party - with delicious mulled wine, a frosty nice walk through the zoo and a banquet meal afterwards. And during the subsequent game rounds and by unpacking the Secret Santa junk gifts we laughed a lot together!

September 2019

Fight with the dragon

...this was the hint in the invitation to the HMP team. Only shortly before, the secret was revealed.

In most beautiful summer weather, this time the HMP team met for dragon boating. On the river Elbe, we went upstream until a beaver lodge blocked our way to the moat "Mönchsgraben". After a short break we returned downstream in a relaxed way. Some very courageous even tested their dexterity on SUP boards, whereby not all of them remained dry... Afterwards we sat together to enjoy a cosy barbecue. That was a great afternoon!

HMP barbecue - Where the manager still grills by himself!

Not only working together, but also enjoying life together - this is also part of the corporate philosophy of HMP. In the most beautiful summer weather the HMP team met for a barbecue, of course with their partners and children.

Due to individual family recipes, the grill buffet was again especially delicious! And finally, of course, not to forget our traditional raspberry dessert.

God Jul!

The most beautiful presents can not be packed into wrapping paper - love, family, friends, laughter, health, happiness.

This year we celebrated cosy ″Scandinavian Christmas″ within the historic walls of the ″Festung Mark″ in Magdeburg, with delicious Glögg at fire, feast, music, dance and crappy Secret Santa!

September 2018

HMP team - joyride in the Harz

In anticipation of a relaxed paddle tour on the river Bode, the HMP team drove together to Gröningen.

Teamwork and strategy were required. To manoeuvre a canoe is not that easy at first ... especially not when you´re shot at. Our captain had distributed water pistols. The aim was to spray the checkered flags of the opposing paddlers as wet as possible. This task was fulfilled with great pleasure. Nobody remained dry. After the paddle tour we dried ourselves at the barbecue fire and sat comfortably together.

Split happens ... HMP bowling night

"Good wood!" was the slogan for our HMP team on August, 15 in the Bowling World Magdeburg.

27 years HMP GmbH - Cheers to us.

On the occasion of the 27th company anniversary, the HMP team, their partners and children met for a putting tournament. There was a lot of talking and laughing. It became particularly exciting, when the third place had to be determined in a jump-off. A Laola wave for the winner could not be missed.

Afterwards we sat together in a cozy round and enjoyed a meal. Even our youngest guests had a lot of fun.

HMP team is enjoying the sun

On July, 09, already, the day approaches. More than 1,000 teams with 5 runners each participate the 7. Magdeburger relay race. The 5 x 3km route leads through the Elbauenpark. The fun is of course in the foreground.

September 2013

Relay run - ROTrunner took part!

At 06:00 pm the start gun sounded for the fifth edition of the company relay in our home town Magdeburg. 5 x 2.5 km was the distance around the Adolf-Mittag-Lake, directly in the heart of Magdeburg. The company relay is THE sporty event of the year and the biggest networking possibility of the region. Each team consists of 5 runners.

This year there were 4000 runners from more than 500 companies.

To be honest, we were not the fastest, but we had a lot of fun!

All finished!

The HMP ROTRUNNER start at the 2. Magdeburger Relay Race! More than 200 teams from Magdeburg start on June,17th at the relay race in Stadtpark Rotehorn. As soon as the starting signal was given at 7pm, each five-person team has to bring the company baton around the Adolf-Mittag-Lake five times, before the final runner of each team crosses the finish line. Finally an electronic time measurement will decide about the fastest company of the state capital. Keep your fingers crossed for us!
