The roots of RAUMEDIC AG’s factory in Zwönitz go back much further into the past. As early as the 1980s, the nationally owned company Messgerätewerk facility in Zwönitz was developing the first pressure measurement probes. After the German reunification, polymer specialist REHAU AG + Co took over the business in 1996 to complement its medical division. Spun off from REHAU in 2004, the factory in Zwönitz continued to operate under the new name RAUMEDIC AG. With its headquarters in Helmbrechts (Bavaria), the company employs over 680 workers worldwide, with a focus on extrusion, injection molding and assembly of products for the medical and pharmaceutical industry.
“In 1996, we had three engineers and a three-person production team,” recalls Jens Rausendorf, manager of the production department. Today, the Zwönitz location is home to 26 employees who develop and produce high-precision pressure measurement systems, primarily for neurosurgery applications.
