RENOLIT expands: New plant for geomembranes in India
RENOLIT is investing in India: a new plant for high-quality geomembranes is being built in Pune. In this article, I report on my trip to the “ground-breaking ceremony”, the opportunities in a dynamic market - and why global expansion and a strong connection to our home country belong together for us.

Our departure into the future
Big changes require bold decisions. At RENOLIT, we have made a conscious decision to take a significant step into the future. With one of the largest investments in our history, we are merging the Frankenthal and Worms sites in Worms, expanding our headquarters in a targeted manner and optimizing our processes. In doing so, we are focusing even more strongly on sustainability - and at the same time creating the best conditions for a strong, future-proof team. We call this Project “Aufbruch” (Awakening).

Reliability and future: Why long company affiliations make RENOLIT strong
No future without experience. Reliability and innovation are not contradictory - they belong together. That is precisely why I am proud that so many of our employees have shaped RENOLIT over decades and helped to shape change. To honor this commitment, we held an anniversary gala and honored those who celebrated a special company anniversary last year. An evening of appreciation and gratitude - and a sign that continuity is our foundation.
Sustainability
Sustainability remains relevant even in volatile times
The focus on sustainability and climate protection seems to be changing. Political programs and priorities are shifting, and in the face of numerous crises, the topic seems to be less present. In this article, I explain why sustainability and climate protection nevertheless remain of central importance – and why RENOLIT continues to pursue this path consistently.

The future of industry: a turning point for innovation and sustainability
The future of the industry will not be characterized by stability, but by change and adaptation. In a world that is changing faster than ever before, companies are faced with the challenge of not only focusing on growth and market share, but also having the courage to break new ground. Innovation and future viability will be the driving forces that determine which companies survive in the long term - and which do not. From next year, I will be taking on responsibility as the new CEO of RENOLIT. These are my thoughts on the future of the industry and the future of RENOLIT.
Leadership
Leadership has to provide security
Managers have the task of leading their employees to success. This depends on many factors. One of the most important is security. I notice over and over again that young people at the start of their career in particular don't have the confidence to contribute their ideas and take risks. That's why I keep asking myself: what can I do as a manager to give my employees more security?
Leadership
Promoting young talents is an engine for the industry
The success of German industry is based on the expertise of its many employees. The extreme shortage of skilled workers is consequently an unprecedented threat to the entire economy. Therefore, I am surprised that we in Germany place so little emphasis on promoting young talents. After all, it can act as an engine for industry. To achieve this, however, politics and business need to make more efforts together - instead of just relying on short-term solutions.
Leadership
Gen-Z is placing new demands - Rightly so!
Generation Z and the world of work - hardly anything has been discussed more in the area of work and careers in recent months. The debate ranges from sweeping accusations that Gen Z is work-shy to demands for completely new working conditions. One thing is clear: Gen Z is placing new demands. And I think: rightly so.
