The company philosophy of InfraLeuna GmbH can be expressed in a few words: You concentrate on your core business; we create and develop the supporting framework for your production. This means: Cost-efficient services aligned with the individual needs of your company relieve you of peripheral activities at the desired scope.

Leuna – The Site for Sustainable Chemistry

The Leuna Chemical Complex is synonymous with dynamic development, innovation, and highest efficiency. Since the introduction of the market economy in former East Germany in 1990, both international corporations and medium-sized companies have invested over 9 billion Euros in the Leuna Chemical Complex - which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2016. Today Leuna is one of the top addresses for modern chemistry in Europe.

Feedstock integration, energy integration, an efficient infrastructure, and its strategically advantageous location at the heart of Europe are decisive factors in the location's competitiveness and economic strength. This is exemplified in part by the circa 17,000 employees working in more than 100 companies producing 12 million metric tons of goods every year on the complex.

The chemical industry's long tradition in the region ensures a close bond with the people who live and work here. Skilled workers and professionals, teaching and learning at the local technical colleges and universities are available to safeguard the innovativeness of the companies on the complex.

Renewable raw materials, e-fuels, circular economy, industrial use of green hydrogen - Leuna has a leading position when it comes to sustainable chemistry. Research facilities offer suitable structures to realize projects focused on the production of green hydrogen such as the Hydrogen Lab Leuna or to develop new plants for the production of e-fuels. With UPM's biorefinery, the world's largest PEM electrolyzer from Linde, and TOPAS, the global market leader in easily recyclable COC products, pioneering concepts are already being implemented in Leuna to change the chemical industry in a sustainable way.

Synergy Effects in Feedstock Integration

There is a very diverse range of products produced in Leuna reflecting the multilayered production profile of the complex. A highly flexible and efficient infrastructure permits traditional mass chemistry as well as specialty chemistry - this is increasingly becoming the focus of many companies. Integration with the refinery in Leuna and the supra-regional pipeline network ensures the advantageous supply of essential raw materials. The on-site research facilities offer ideal conditions for the development of highly specialized products.

Companies on the complex benefit from a highly developed and complex feedstock integration that promotes synergy effects. The systematic implementation of the chemical park concept, with InfraLeuna GmbH as the independent operator of the infrastructure, safeguards the synergy effects of the Leuna Chemical Complex and secures a cost-effective and efficient production environment for the companies on-site.

InfraLeuna’s comprehensive range of activities encompasses the provision of steam, electricity, in particular renewable energies, as well as fresh water and drinking water, wastewater disposal and other services. Complex logistic solutions are also offered. InfraLeuna is owned exclusively by on-site companies who operate their own plants on the complex. At all times, the focus is on the business success of the customers as well as the future development of the complex as a whole.

The chemical park concept has proven to be a solid foundation for establishing a trusting and mutually beneficial cooperation between InfraLeuna and the chemical companies operating in Leuna. Especially in an increasingly complex environment, InfraLeuna is a competent service partner for the challenges surrounding your core business. With the concentration of skills, expertise, and innovative strength at the Leuna Chemical Complex, InfraLeuna is driving and supporting the sustainable development of the chemical industry.
