Having built more than 10,000 plants all over the world serving one billion people, Degrémont has proved itself without any doubt to be a global leader in the field of water treatment. The company develops and builds a wide range of facilities such as drinking water production installations, desalination plants, waste water treatment and sewage sludge processing plants for local commu-nities and industrial enterprises. To ensure the efficient operation of its plants, Degrémont relies on the know-how and expertise of dedicated partners and suppliers. Digital devices such as TED50 and ED752 manufactured by Baumer are used for pressure measurement and level detection.

At Boehringer Ingelheim's biopharmaceutical location in Biberach, researchers are focusing specifically on protein therapeutics and, linked to this, technologies for cultivating mammalian cells. In view of the sensitivity of these cells, strict hygienic measures are a constant consideration. In order to prevent biological materials from leaving the premises, the structural researchers concerned use a disposal system manufactured by Meteka, the Austrian supplier.
