UKL iT & Logistik has been a name for stability and innovation in rail freight transport for 35 years – and is a valued partner in our RAILTALKS. Community. The company is now continuing this success story architecturally: in spring 2026, the expansion and modernization of its headquarters in Bad Driburg will begin.

Growth as a Foundation

The last decade in particular has been characterized by impressive momentum at UKL. This development is clearly reflected in the figures:

• Revenue growth: In the past 10 years, UKL has been able to increase its revenue by more than 2.5 times.
• Team growth: To achieve these successes, the team has also more than doubled in size.

This growth underlines not only UKL’s economic success but also the increasing demands of the railway industry. If more goods are to be shifted from road to rail, stable digital processes, intelligent solutions, and reliable partners are needed – and this is exactly where UKL comes in.

Expansion and Modernization

To meet growing requirements and its own standards for a modern working environment, UKL is now sending a clear signal. The building, originally constructed in 2014, will be expanded with a second upper floor.

For the company, this is about more than just additional square meters. UKL is specifically investing in:

• Modern infrastructure: A high-performance IT environment for scalable systems and secure data communication.
• Sustainability: Increased use of regenerative energy through its own PV system and energetic modernization of the existing building.
• New Work & Collaboration: Open, light-filled spatial concepts that promote exchange while offering quiet areas for focus.

Responsibility as an Employer

As a growing company in a future-oriented industry, UKL iT & Logistik GmbH sees it as its responsibility to be a strong employer in the Bad Driburg region.

Despite hybrid work models, the company consciously focuses on providing sufficient office space. At UKL, every employee retains their own permanent workstation. This is because management is convinced: personal exchange, team culture, and identification with the company thrive where people have the space to develop solutions together.

The entire team is looking forward to reaching the next milestone in the company’s history.
