With millions in expansion
Why Kremsmünster is Europe’s capital
The ground-breaking ceremony took place in May 2023, trial operations have been running since August and the plant has now officially been put into operation, making the service provider Mediscan in Kremsmünster the largest sterilization site in Europe. Treating products so that they are germ-free "is a growth market", Greiner CEO Saori Dubourg is convinced.
The Greiner Group has been represented in Upper Austria for 125 years - on Wednesday, the plastics processor and foam manufacturer had reason to celebrate. The expansion of the Greiner Bio-One-Mediscan site in Kremsmünster was officially inaugurated, making the plant the largest sterilization site in Europe.
Plenty of potential to "turn the little plant into a beautiful flower"
A total of 22 million euros was invested to expand the range of processing services for medical products, pharmaceuticals and food packaging. "When we address Greiner on the global market, no one will think of sterilization," says Chairman of the Supervisory Board Dominik Greiner, "Mediscan is still a small, very successful plant within the Group." With a lot of potential. Greiner reveals: "We believe that this little plant can grow into a very beautiful flower."
With this capacity expansion, Greiner also wants to make a clear commitment to Upper Austria as a business location.

The capacities of the existing facilities are practically fully utilized, reveals Mediscan Managing Director Markus Niederreiter.
