Data & Facts
> 2 Billion Syringes per Year
Our production has grown continually. In 1987, we broke the barrier of 1 billion syringes for the first time and expansion of production capacity in the following years has allowed us to double this number. Placed end to end, the syringes which we produce each year would stretch around the Earth’s equator almost five times. Each day, up to eight million syringes leave our production facilities.
> 65 Million Euro Turnover per Year
Our annual turnover was 1.9 million Deutsche marks in 1963. Since this time it has continually risen: to 70 million marks in our anniversary year 1986 and, despite all of the world’s financial crises, to more than 65 million euro today.
26.742 qm Production Area
We moved into our current facilities in Bad Arolsen in 1968. Since that time, we have expanded our technical capacity repeatedly.
