The company has 20 loca\u00adti\u00adons in Austria, Germany, Switz\u00ader\u00adland, Italy and Roma\u00adnia and employs over 400 highly quali\u00adfied employees.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince its foun\u00adda\u00adtion in 1990, VTU Engi\u00adnee\u00adring has stood for the highest level of compe\u00adtence, quality and relia\u00adbi\u00adlity in plant design. Our growth path so far proves that we have deve\u00adlo\u00adped from an Austrian specia\u00adlist to a leading plant desi\u00adgner and project mana\u00adger in the entire German-spea\u00adking region and beyond through tech\u00adni\u00adcal know-how and a constant expan\u00adsion of core compe\u00adten\u00adcies,\u201d comm\u00adents foun\u00adder Dr. Michael Koncar<\/strong>, who will support the company in the future as a member of the advi\u00adsory board.<\/p>\n

Since 2010, VTU has more than tripled its sales and more than doubled its work\u00adforce. Major projects with phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal custo\u00admers in Germany, Austria and Switz\u00ader\u00adland are the main growth drivers. DPE Mana\u00adging Direc\u00adtor Guido Prehn empha\u00adsi\u00adzes: \u201cWe have been follo\u00adwing VTU\u2019s deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment for more than two years. We are impres\u00adsed by how the company has estab\u00adlished long-stan\u00adding rela\u00adti\u00adonships with the big names in the phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal indus\u00adtry. We see signi\u00adfi\u00adcant growth poten\u00adtial for VTU and will stron\u00adgly support the manage\u00adment team as it conti\u00adnues on its course.\u201d VTU intends to leverage its strong market posi\u00adtion and repu\u00adta\u00adtion as a phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal specia\u00adlist to drive growth with new custo\u00admers. \u201cWe are looking forward to tack\u00adling VTU\u2019s next growth initia\u00adti\u00adves with an expe\u00adri\u00aden\u00adced, entre\u00adpre\u00adneu\u00adrial and strong part\u00adner behind us,\u201d under\u00adlines VTU CEO Dr. Fried\u00adrich Fr\u00f6schl.<\/p>\n
