Evonik launches Innovation Factory

Evonik is realigning its strategic research unit with the launch of Innovation Factory. Operated as an entrepreneurial development unit, the Innovation Factory accelerates the transition of technological breakthroughs into industrial applications. Its aims: innovation with speed, market focus, and application relevance.

 

“We are aligning our innovation system to significantly shorten the time from development to market launch. The Innovation Factory is our promise to turn excellent research into tangible industrial progress – for both ourselves and our customers,” said Christian Eilbracht, Chief Innovation Officer at Evonik.

 

Innovation with speed

 

The heart of the new unit is a mandatory timeframe: each program is designed to be developed within an average of five years to the point where Evonik can transfer it to a Business Line – ready for operations and production.

 

"The Innovation Factory operates according to a clear principle: 'Building what's next'. To achieve this, Evonik will integrate its own expertise even more closely with external impulses from academia, startup ecosystems, and industry partners. This results in technically and commercially more resilient solutions that deliver immediate industrial value and meet real market demands," explained Axel Kobus, Head of the Evonik Innovation Factory.

 

Market focus and application relevance

 

In terms of content, the Innovation Factory focuses on areas where Evonik already has established strengths and where customers urgently need new solutions.

 

One example is rhamnolipids. These highly effective yet exceptionally environmentally friendly biosurfactants are already used in cosmetic and cleaning products and offer many additional applications.

 

Evonik is now consistently pursuing this path: with a new portfolio of biopolymers that can replace fossil raw materials, and the development of anion exchange membranes (AEM), which are expected to play a key role in the green hydrogen economy in the future.

 

Global network for new technologies

 

The Innovation Factory is an integral part of Evonik's global research strategy. It strengthens the company's global presence – from Boston (USA) with the Cambridge Innovation Satellite for Life Sciences, to Singapore with biotech process solutions, and Shanghai (China) with membrane activities.

 

Together, these sites provide access to new technologies, talent, and partnerships in relevant markets and ecosystems.
