ACTEGA Rhenania on June 5 inaugurated its new laboratory building in Grevenbroich.

The company, which belongs to the specialty chemicals group ALTANA, invested around €10 million in the new building.

The building has an area of 5,700 square meters, doubling ACTEGA Rhenania’s space for research and development.

“With this investment we are considerably boosting our innovative strength and bolstering one of our most important competitive advantages,” said Dr. Thomas Sawitowski, managing director of ACTEGA Rhenania GmbH.

A special feature of the new building, which at full capacity will accommodate around 70 employees, is the customer technology center. It encompasses various manufacturing plants in miniature format and enables ACTEGA to understand production processes and specific customer requirements better in practice than is possible under pure laboratory conditions. Not only ACTEGA Rhenania but also other companies in the ACTEGA division will make use of it.
