Biesterfeld opens Lab and Innovation Center to expand its laboratory capacities in Hamburg. Covering a total area of 800 m² the premises will be used with immediate effect for application-related laboratory activities. These include the development of innovative and market-oriented formulations, carrying out of product tests and customer-specific project work. The Biesterfeld Group also has regional laboratories in Norway, Turkey and Poland.
Developing Tailored Solutions for Customers’ Demand
In the application laboratories, Biesterfeld develops tailored solutions to cater for the needs of customers. An innovative formulation, for example, can be made market-ready through the addition of additives from its wide-ranging portfolio and thus support marketing work. Alongside individual project work in accordance with customer requirements, the laboratory will be used to screen new raw materials from its partners and to conduct comparative studies.
An existing laboratory in Hamburg has been integrated into the new application laboratory to make the new Biesterfeld Lab and Innovation Center. The premises also contain a conference room and a modern presentation and meeting area, which can be used for product launches and technical training sessions.
"
We can also draw on even more extensive resources by working together with external laboratories and institutes", reports Peter Wilkes, managing director of Biesterfeld Spezialchemie.
"Our technology-based laboratory work constitutes a valuable service for our customers and provides customer-specific solutions. I am therefore delighted that we are also able to offer sufficient space in our Hamburg application laboratory for an interactive exchange of ideas with our suppliers and customers."
