No indication of notability, no third-party sources. What looks like a third-party source, "The Best of German Engineering", is acually written by the lobby organization VDMA, the German Engineering Federation, of which Pilz is a member. I looked for third-party coverage and came up with no more than a few passing mentions, though lots of false positives make a thorough search difficult.

I've found several third party sources concerning the company Pilz GmbH & Co. KG. It's a little bit difficlut so search because "Pilz" means also fungus in German . So I've found the following:
Google News:
https://www.google.com/search?q=Pilz+GmbH%22&tbm=bks#q=%22Pilz+GmbH%22&tbm=nws
Google Books: https://www.google.com/search?q=Pilz+GmbH"&tbm=bks#q=%22Pilz+GmbH%22&start=20&tbm=bks
Could you please have a look on those sources. I'll add them afterwards. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Safety-Hero (talk • contribs) 11:50, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak keep. I appreciate the nominator's concerns, and this is a hard one to search, especially for English-language results. HighBeam has more than 150 hits for <Pilz automation> [1] and while these seem to be largely routine coverage, the volume and worldwide scope of the mentions seem to me to indicate a notable company. I note that some promotional text in the article has recently been addressed by editing. --Arxiloxos (talk) 18:20, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
