Analytik Jena creates basis for further growth with expansion

Clear commitment to the Thuringia location: Analytik Jena GmbH+Co. KG is constructing a new building at its long-standing production site in Ilmenau (South Thuringia), which will house the development and production of measuring devices as well as sample handling for sum parameter and elemental analysis. The company is investing over 30 million euros and, with this expansion, is creating potential for up to 80 new jobs in the coming years. Analytik Jena develops and produces analysis systems and analytical measurement technology in the field of chemical analysis and life science solutions. The company is represented in more than 100 countries. The company headquarters is in Jena, Thuringia, where Analytik Jena GmbH+Co. KG was founded in 1990; since 2014, it has been part of the Swiss Endress+Hauser Group.

The investment is being made in the industrial park "Ehrenberg-Ost", which has been successfully developed and marketed by LEG Thüringen . On a footprint equivalent to a football field, the new building creates space for modern workplaces in development, production, logistics, laboratories, and offices. "We are pleased to achieve several key goals with the new building," says Bertram Eichhorn, VP Operations and site manager of Analytik Jena Ilmenau, who is also leading the new building project. "We are generating space for further growth as well as the opportunity to bring our two Ilmenau sites under one roof." According to the company, it benefits from the framework conditions at the rapidly growing "Ehrenberg-Ost" site. The area ensures ideal conditions for an excellent CO2 footprint through the supply of local district heating from biogas. Furthermore, the new building features photovoltaic systems and a green roof, demonstrating sustainable design. For the company's employees, the investment offers an improvement in modern working conditions. "With the new building, we are making the leap to an innovative and attractive working environment, and within walking distance of the Technical University of Ilmenau," adds Grit Petzholdt-Gühne, VP Human Resources.
