PORTRAIT<br />

world: <strong>Munsch</strong> <strong>Chemie</strong>-<strong>Pumpen</strong> <strong>GmbH</strong> delivers around 80 percent<br />

of its production abroad. What makes the pumps from this<br />

family business so unique: They are made entirely of plastic instead<br />

of metal as usual. This makes it possible, for example, to<br />

transport chemically contaminated liquids that would otherwise<br />

damage metal pumps. The company was founded <strong>by</strong> the father<br />

of the Managing Director in 1964. Currently, the company has<br />

125 employees and generated sales of €27.5 million in 2017. Remarkably,<br />

nearly one tenth of annual sales is invested in research<br />

and development every year, whereas the industry average is<br />

only between four and six percent.
