Verder Scientific is a leading manufacturer of high-quality laboratory and analysis equipment. The company moved into its newly constructed headquarters in the Haan Technology Park in 2012. W\u00e4hrend man zu Beginn mit 140 Mitarbeitern am Standort vertreten war, beherbergt das Geb\u00e4ude heute 400 Mitarbeiter und wurde aufgrund des stetigen Unternehmenswachstums im Jahr 2017 mit einem Anbau erweitert.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The company\u2019s history began in 1915 when pharmacist F. Kurt Retsch founded his business in D\u00fcsseldorf. A major milestone followed in 1923 with his development of the first proprietary mortar mill, later known worldwide as the \u201cRetsch Mill,\u201d which revolutionized laboratory work through its precision and reproducibility.<\/p>\n\n

In 1989, Andr\u00e9 Verder and Frans Bakker acquired the company. Together they transformed it from a family-run operation into an internationally oriented enterprise, laying the groundwork for the Scientific Division of today\u2019s Verder Group \u2013 now comprising six manufacturers, eleven production sites, and thirteen subsidiaries across multiple continents. With its expertise in these fields, Verder Scientific empowers its customers to make meaningful progress.<\/p>\n\n

The company provides them with the tools to shape their processes and products in ways that enhance safety, efficiency, and sustainability. The precision of Verder Scientific\u2019s instruments forms the foundation for improvements such as increasing the effectiveness of pharmaceuticals, producing healthier food, improving the recyclability of packaging, or enhancing the safety of aircraft components. A strong example of how Verder Scientific\u2019s solutions contribute to greater safety and public health is the preparation of samples for heavy-metal analysis in children\u2019s toys. <\/p>\n\n

Strict limits regulate how much of substances such as arsenic or cadmium may leach from a toy without posing a risk to children. Using Retsch laboratory mills, plastic toys can be processed into a representative and homogeneous analytical sample that enables highly precise measurement of contaminants. <\/p>\n\n

Customers who choose the innovative stamping and plastics-engineering solutions of EDUARD KRONENBERG GmbH also benefit from the offerings within the Verder Scientific Group, as its portfolio includes instruments for testing and quality control of components such as steel or plastic connectors.<\/p>\n\n

As a company that is entirely family-owned, Verder Scientific looks back on a long tradition while maintaining a clear focus on the future. Through its solutions, the company makes an essential contribution to securing technical, economic, and environmental progress. Especially in fast-moving times like these, sustainability is a decisive success factor for Verder Scientific. Strong examples include the company\u2019s high-quality, long-lasting products as well as its employees \u2013 many of whom have been part of its success story for decades.<\/p>\n\n

A major step toward climate neutrality was taken with the installation of a high-performance solar power system on the roof of the company headquarters in Haan. With a capacity of 479 kWp, the system is expected to cover more than half of the site\u2019s annual energy consumption in the future. In addition to using renewable energy sources, Verder Scientific continually implements extensive consumption optimizations and energy-saving measures.<\/p>\n\n
