The Hannoversche Eisengießerei was founded in 1857 at the time of the Kingdom of Hanover on the initiative of Julius Meese , owner of the Hotel de Russie . The iron wholesaler Franz Juncken und Companie (see Georg von Cölln ) and the banking house Ephraim Meyer & Sohn were also involved in founding the corporation .

After the factory building went into operation in 1858, the company employed around 200 people in just a few years. The stock corporation specialized successfully in the manufacture of tubes from the beginning of the 1860s . At the Hanoverian trade exhibition in 1878, the company presented its "recognized, excellent large-diameter pipes, some of which were enormous", some of which were vertically cast socket pipes without seams .

In 1898 the company with its 300 employees was relocated to Anderten . There also were additionally now generators equipment manufactured and later devices encrusted for cleaning pipelines . To clean entire pipe network reported the dictionary of technology by Otto Lueger of the "pipe cleaners Nowotny" which, under the German Reich Patent No. D.RP 117,277 O. of the Hannoversche iron foundry, "before [times] German tube cleaning company Mierisch & Co. in Dresden “Was used. In 1924, a cleaning box with a turbine was used for the renovation of the water pipes of the Radevormwald municipal utility . It was driven through the pipe by water pressure, which literally drilled out the previously shut-off pipe and freed it of rust deposits.

In Anderten, however, the foundry continued to operate: as early as 1910, castings with a total weight of 25,000 kilograms were being produced. A special department produced complete fittings for gas, water and steam pipes, while other products, such as agricultural machinery , could not be sold as successfully .

The company existed until after the Second World War and was closed in 1961.
