Our customers demand solutions for complex applications which have already undergone feasibility checks. Hence, our R&D department works in close cooperation with potential customers and the sales department, provides technical support to customers and deals with all issues concerning

the large-scale production of new customer projects. Customers requesting a quotation are provided with initial design solutions that have already undergone feasibility checks.

The R&D team develops and explores the potential of innovative technologies, materials and processes. This clear focus on innovation is of major importance to the leading technology provider Gerresheimer Medical Plastic Systems, as it prepares the ground for corporate growth. The department selects technologies and processes for further development and practical application. This way, we can meet all customer requirements concerning quality, cost and time-to-market. The R&D department operates a systematic innovation management including permanent technology screenings. It will also be involved in the active development of new technologies such as micro technology.
