De Dietrich Process Systems a wholly owned subsidiary is reinforcing its role as a world-class provider of process equipment, systems and services for fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It enhances its global position as a leading supplier of major international groups grouped around three core activities :

A field in which De Dietrich Glass-Lining is world N°2 thanks to its world-wide organisation (with subsidiaries in the United States, Brasil, South Africa, Singapore) and licences in Japan and Corea, supported by the original Zinswiller plant in Alsace (north-eastern France), the most important industrial facility for glass-lined equipment in the world.

• Filtration and drying equipment - installed in fine chemical and pharmaceutical applications downstream of glass-lined vessels - for which Rosenmund (a 90 % holding) is world leader with an industrial network in Switzerland, France, Great Britain and the United States, and licences in India, China and Japan.

• Glass components and systems in which QVF (a fully-owned subsidiary since March 2000) is world N°1. Due to this leadership, QVF is also a leading supplier of pilot plant equipment as well as engineering systems.
