We deeply mourn the loss of our company founder, Prof. Helmut A. Müller, who passed away on September 15, 2015, at the age of 85.

† Prof. Helmut A. Müller

In 1958, Helmut A. Müller took over the acoustical consulting firm "Schalltechnisches Beratungsbüro" from his teacher, Prof. Dr. Lothar Cremer, and, together with him and three other associates, he set up the then Müller-BBN GmbH in 1962. Helmut Müller's courage and pioneering spirit combined with his outstanding expertise, high ethical standards and great empathy created the breeding ground for the growth of today's Müller-BBM Group with its unique share-based employee participation. In addition to his activities as an acoustical consultant, for which he was recognized and respected worldwide, he also wrote and published technical literature which ranks among today's standard references in acoustics. Since he enjoyed working with young people, he also taught physics at the Violin Making School of Mittenwald and gave lectures at Munich's University of Applied Sciences for many years.   Although a retired shareholder, Helmut A. Müller continued to be interested in the company's development; we greatly appreciated him as our advisor and mentor.   In recognition of his lifetime achievement, Helmut A. Müller was awarded the German Federal Cross of Merit on ribbon in 2005.   We have lost a great role model and a fatherly friend. With his achievements, Helmut A. Müller created an unparalleled working environment for us. We will greatly miss him and gratefully remember him for his great heart and humor.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family.
