Firms involved in Auschwitz and the Holocaust

please write in the article which companies were involved in auschwitz ...

siemens - built the trains of the german reichsbahn, with which jews were deported to auschwitz ... the auschwitz bobrek concentration camp was a company owned by siemens ... maybe siemens also built the electricity generator of the concentration camps in auschwitz ... with those of the electrically charged fence was energized ...

degussa - was involved in degesch, the cyclone b manufacturer

IG Farben - built the chemical factory IG Auschwitz in Auschwitz ... largest chemical factory in the world ... today the IG colors are split up again into BASF and Bayer ...

krupp - bought forced laborers from auschwitz to work in the krupp factory in essen ...

here is a list of many companies that were involved in auschwitz ...

https://en.wikipedia.org/List_of_companies_involved_in_the_Holocaust

is in English, the website should be written in translated form ... (unsigned article from 2003: FA: 5F0A: AC00: B108: CD06: F676: 32A6 (discussion) 01:08, 25 Dec. 2021 (CET ))

Of the 1,000 most powerful companies in Europe, the majority were involved in auschwitz and the holocaust ...

the vw group built the vw bucket that the police had used to persecute jews ... vw employed tens of thousands of forced laborers ...

opel built the opel blitz, which was used in the blitz war against poland ... police battalons used the opel blitz to deport Jews to concentration camps ... so opel was also involved in the holocaust ...

junkers, focke wulf, messerschmidt, heinkel and horten are companies that helped the nazis with their planes to conquer territories and thus these companies were involved in the holocaust ...

There are very many companies that were involved in the holocaust, auschwitz or the nazi regime ... it would be too much for me to write them all down here ...
