Reinach site returns to its roots for Archroma

10/12/2021

Specialist developer of textile chemicals Archroma has relocated its headquarters to the Swiss town of Pratteln, ten kilometres east of Basel.

It explained that the new location is in a business hub that has a fully serviced conference and event centre.

Archroma will keep its existing site at Reinach, which is a few kilometres to the south of Basel; it will concentrate on research and development activities there.

The Reinach site was always intended to function as a dedicated technical centre, but growth over the last decade meant it had begun to host a growing number of corporate services and teams. These teams will now move to Pratteln and the Reinach facility “will return to its roots”.

Chief executive, Heike van de Kerkhof, said: “We are excited to refocus our Reinach site as a true tech hub to provide innovative, sustainable solutions and services to our customers to help them increase the value of their products.”
