Schleicher & Schuell, Inc.

Source: Schleicher & Schuell, Inc.
Imagine a company which perfectly combines tradition, flexibility, and innovation. Our world is that of paper in all its many uses. Paper which carries our name to the German and international markets.

The range of our products extends from watercolour pads to diagnostic products, chart papers, filter papers, fax rolls, advertising materials, and securities through to accessories for the recording and control industry.

Since of 1862 Schleicher & Schuell has been owned by the founding families and with over 600 employees today, it plays a significant economic role in the region between Harz and Solling. The company is clearly structured into the following divisions:

  • Hahnemühle and Fine Papers
  • Security Printing
  • Filtration/Life Science/Diagnostic Components
  • Accessories for Recording and Control

    Any company wishing to take up a leading position in a dynamic sector must be prepared to continually orientate its structures and capabilities according to its customers' requirements and market demands. It must also be open to new challenges, critism, and change.

    All four divisions, therefore, shape their own R&D, production, marketing, and sales; in coordination with the others but nonetheless independent of each other. In this way be believe that creativity and unconventional ideas can be given full rein.
