The partnership is complemented by the participation of the north-east regional association of the Verband der Chemischen Industrie e.V. (“German chemical industry association”). The different chemical sites are characterized by specific areas of expertise that have arisen from the different privatization models and the transformation process in the chemical industry in Eastern Germany. All operating companies are distinguished by a special professional competence in dealing with complex restructuring processes as well as highly individualized performance spectra and site conditions. Also of particular note is the interlinking of the different sites and companies through a complex feedstock integration of pipelines and logistics networks. Within the framework of CeChemNet the partners follow an objective of developing the existing chemical sites further and to increase their competitiveness while safeguarding and creating jobs. Existing value chains are optimized together in terms of downstream industries. Chemical site networking is intensified within the feedstock networks. CeChemNet provides a basis for mutual experience exchange and contact management in the region and with national and international partners.

Since the mid 1990s, more than 600 businesses have settled, more than 17 billion Euros have been invested and more than 30,000 jobs have been created.

Chemiepark Bitterfeld-Wolfen

Bitterfeld is one of the oldest chemical sites in Europe with large-scale chemical production founded in 1893. During the last decade, the entire infrastructure was renewed and modernized. The site is home to global players and small and medium-sized enterprises alike, producing fine and special chemicals. Today, the Chemiepark Bitterfeld-Wolfen GmbH is owned by Gelsenwasser AG, one of the biggest service suppliers for water, waste water and energy in Germany. The total area is 1,200 hectares, with 120 hectares currently available for new business settlement. The 360 firms employ 11,000 people working here. Since 1990, companies from Germany, Chile, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Israel, Japan, Sweden, Switzerland, the USA and other countries have invested approximately 4,5 billion Euro into the chemical site. Its industrial profile is characterized by chlorine, phosphorus, dyestuff, pharmaceutical, quartz glass, fine and high-tech chemistry as well as metallurgy. The chemical site offers a comprehensive range of services which allows the companies to concentrate on their core business activities. Convenient traffic connections and a high acceptance of the population contribute to the overall experience.

The integrated production facilities are the main drivers for optimizing the process chains and achieving synergies.

Examples for this integration are the production of synthetic quartz glass and pure silicon.

Leuna Chemical Complex

The Leuna Chemical Complex is synonymous with dynamic development, innovation and efficiency. Since the introduction of the market economy in the former East Germany in 1990, both international corporations and medium-sized companies have invested over 6 billion euros in the Leuna Chemical Complex – which is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. Today, Leuna is one of the top addresses for modern chemistry in Europe.

There is a very diverse range of products made in Leuna reflecting the multilayered production profile of the complex. A highly flexible and efficient infrastructure permits traditional mass chemistry as well as specialty chemistry – this is increasingly becoming the focus of many companies. Integration with the refinery in Leuna and the supra-regional pipeline network ensures the advantageous supply of essential raw materials. Research institutions on-site have flexible facilities ideal for the development of highly specialized products.

InfraLeuna’ s comprehensive range of activities encompasses the provision of steam, electricity, fresh water and drinking water as well as wastewater disposal and other services. Complex logistic solutions are also offered. InfraLeuna is owned exclusively by on-site companies who operate their own plants on the complex.
