Gerhard Riedhammer, REHAU Group

“Bavaria is an important location with international appeal. Thanks to its excellent universities, it can draw on an impressive pool of highly qualified skilled workers. This also brings benefits for high-tech companies, which like REHAU work closely together with the various institutions.

Well-trained and qualified staff are essential for us to successfully establish ourselves as the premium worldwide brand for polymer processing. The same also applies to our Bavarian production sites in Upper and Middle Franconia, Lower Bavaria and the two administrative centers in Rehau und Erlangen, where research and development for our three construction, automotive and industry divisions are based. As the headquarters of our international group for over 60 years, Rehau has established itself as a successful development center and creative forge generating new ideas for the automobile industry.

We can feel proud that our Bavarian facilities produce innovative ideas and technical know-how for customers all over the world. In Bavaria, nearly  5,000 of REHAU’s total worldwide labor force of 15,000 employees make a contribution towards consolidating Bavaria’s reputation as a major business location with international appeal.”
