Detail InformationEdit
Oberbruch Industry Park, is a former 110 ha large site of Akzo Nobel in Heinsberg, the most western district in Germany near the Dutch border. Founded in 1891 as a location for fiber technologies and birthplace of the German rayon and man made fiber industry it is today a diversified multi-user site comprising companies from various fields of industry such as high-performance fibers and new energy technologies as well as from industrial biotechnology.
Oberbruch Industry Park is the competence center for carbon (fiber) technology in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). Since 2000 the industry park has been operated by the Dutch energy company Nuon, the first independent industry park operator not to come from the chemical industry. Since 01.07.2009 n.v. Nuon Energy has been part of Vattenfall.
Since 1998 the site has traded under the name Oberbruch Industry Park. Industriepark Oberbruch GmbH & Co. KG, (IPO), was at that time the service provider for the enterprises at Oberbruch Industry Park. Administration of the industry park, customer-oriented marketing of the entire infrastructure and expansion of new settlements were the main tasks and objectives of IPO which had its origin in the service departments of the former Akzo Nobel site. The services to date comprise supplies, disposal, quality, security, environmental protection, logistics, personnel, project and real estate management, as well as communication.
As Akzo Nobel/Accordis’ last operative business unit at the site a new owner was needed for the service provider. They decided in favour of an independent industry park operator outside the chemical industry, i.e. the Dutch energy company Nuon, which took over the site in 2000. Since 01/07/2009 n.v. Nuon Energy with headquarters in Amsterdam has been part of the Swedish Vattenfall AB.
The industry park management division of Nuon specialises in the operation of industrial parks. In Germany, Nuon currently operates Oberbruch Industry Park in Heinsberg and Niederau Industry Park in Düren, in the Netherlands De Kleef Industry Park in Arnhem and EMMTEC Industry & Business Park in Emmen. Oberbruch Industry Park is now a diversified location including about 20 companies from the fields processing chemistry, plastics and new materials with approx. 2,000 employees. It is operated by NUON Energie und Service GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of n.v. Nuon Energy.
