ACTEGA Rhenania GmbH is erecting a new laboratory building in Grevenbroich. The company, which belongs to ALTANA, is investing approximately €10 million in the new building. The foundation stone is being laid on Aug. 18.
Encompassing a space of 5,700 square meters, the new laboratory building of ACTEGA Rhenania will be twice as large as the site’s two current labs combined. Research and development, quality control and service will be united under one roof, along with a customer technology center to work on new trends.
“So far, these laboratories have been housed in separate buildings,” said Dr. Thomas Sawitowski, the managing director of ACTEGA Rhenania. “By bringing together these departments in one building, we are optimizing our processes and thus can support our customers even more efficiently with new developments.”
With the planned customer technology center, the company will be able to test new trends for packaging, such as coffee capsules and aluminum trays, at a central location.
“One of our most important competitive advantages is that we develop innovative packaging solutions in close cooperation with our customers,” said Dr. Sawitowski. “With the new representative customer technology center we will now meet this demand spatially as well.”
The move into the new building is slated for mid-2017. The old laboratory buildings will be dismantled.
