BRAND. Your partner in the lab.
About us
BRAND in Wer the im
When our company started in 1949, it was
an adventure. From practically nothing,
Rudolf Brand together with five companions
created the foundations of the Wertheimer
glass industry. In that same year, he founded
our present-day company. Starting from the
Wertheim facility, our specialists have steadily
built up the company. The effort was well
worthwhile! Today, BRAND is an important
partner for end users in laboratories around
the world.

About us
Factory and Product ionAs the tasks multiplied, we have grown larger.
One of the world's largest
cleanroom facilities, with ap-
prox. 6000 m2 of production
space, of which the clean-
room makes up 3200 m2.
What began in 1949 with 6 employees engaged
in producing glass apparatus, glass volumetric
measuring instruments, and thermometers, with
continuous facilities expansion in the interim,
led in 2013 to the commissioning of one of the
largest cleanroom facilities in the world. After
liquid handling products, the manufacture of
high-quality plastic disposables for use in the
life sciences area has become one of the most
important production units at BRAND.
