WirtschaftsWoche's "100 Most Innovative Medium-Sized Businesses“ ranking evaluates companies based on an innovation score. It is based on sales and profit development on one-third, and two-thirds on the innovative strength of the organization. The assessment of innovative strength takes into account how many and which innovations a company launches on the market, how much it spends on research and development, and how innovative its competitors consider the company to be. KNAUER's consistently high scores in these categories are a testament to the company's unwavering commitment to remaining at the forefront of technological advancement.
KNAUER produces laboratory instruments for the life science, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical, environmental and food industries. The company is best known for liquid chromatography systems and components, but also played a key role in the production of lipid nanoparticles for mRNA corona vaccines with its newly developed equipment. Company owner Alexandra Knauer manages the family business together with Carsten Losch. Both are committed to sustainable and responsible corporate governance with a focus on the users, the 190 employees and society.
