The newly launched production facility adjoins the existing modern pharmaceutical production unit of ALTANA Pharma Oranienburg GmbH, making the site one of the most important employers in the region. Since the beginning of the 1990s a total amount of around €180 million has been invested in Oranienburg. At present ALTANA Pharma Oranienburg employs about 400 people, inclusive of 50 trainees. To date, €30 million have been invested for the new building and its technical equipment. In the last extension phase, investments will be in the region of €47 million. About 50 new jobs are created for qualified employees such as engineers, pharmacists and pharmaceutical production assistants.
Our plant here in Oranienburg is characterized and considered by many as a lighthouse of the region. This is the result of a corporate philosophy that from its base in Germany counts on innovation and internationalization, commented Dr. Nikolaus Schweickart, President and CEO of ALTANA AG, at the opening ceremony.
The internationalization strategy of the Pharmaceuticals group is based on innovations. Research-driven pharmaceutical companies such as ALTANA Pharma depend on a culture of innovations as a basis for society. In the long run, we can only do business in a country that supports and nurtures innovations, said Dr. Hans-Joachim Lohrisch, President and CEO of ALTANA Pharma AG.
ALTANA Pharma s central production of tablets, capsules, dragees and pellets for the world market takes place in Oranienburg. Almost 20 billion tablets and capsules have been produced at the site since its opening in 1995. This averages out to 11 million pieces per workday. ALTANA s product Pantoprazole accounts for almost half of the production.
