Economy and Infrastructure
Big firms in Klingenberg are the WIKA manometer factory, the ceramic manufacturer Klingenberg Dekoramik in Trennfurt and the lacquer manufacturer Hemmelrath in Röllfeld. Besides industry, tourism is an important field. Klingenberg clay, which among other things is needed in the pencil industry as a graphite additive, is still quarried today as it has been since days of yore, albeit not in such great quantities as it was then. The town lies on the Route der Industriekultur Rhein-Main (“Rhine-Main Route of Industrial Culture”).

Famous quotes containing the words economy and and/or economy:
“Everyone is always in favour of general economy and particular expenditure.”
—Anthony, Sir Eden (18971977)
“Quidquid luce fuit tenebris agit: but also the other way around. What we experience in dreams, so long as we experience it frequently, is in the end just as much a part of the total economy of our soul as anything we really experience: because of it we are richer or poorer, are sensitive to one need more or less, and are eventually guided a little by our dream-habits in broad daylight and even in the most cheerful moments occupying our waking spirit.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
