Description

Everyone has heard of Aspirin®. It began its long story of international success in 1899, in Wuppertal. Countless numbers of pharmaceuticals, crop protection agents and other chemicals were also discovered there by renowned scientists like Felix Hoffmann or the Nobel Prize winner, Gerhard Domagk. Research, development and production of active pharmaceutical ingredients and medicaments have been part of the Bayer tradition in Wuppertal since 1863. The Bayer HealthCare factory in Wuppertal is the home of highly specialised chemtech and biotech facilities. Together with the nearby Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceutical Centre, approximately 2,500 Bayer employees are involved in researching, developing and manufacturing highly specific active ingredients for medicaments.
