The Chemical- und Industrial Park of Zeitz is an open industrial park aimed at the chemical industry in the South of Saxony-Anhalt.
The companies are mostly medium sized, owner-managed companies with a focus on “sustainable chemistry”. About 600 employees are working in these companies. Another 400 employees are working at the site in companies producing energy, industry-related services, as well as research and development.
Due to intensive research in the field of environmental technology, the Chemical and Industrial Park of Zeitz was awarded model site for the removal of soil contaminations in 2001. Since its inauguration in the 1930s, the industrial site of Zeitz has been cutting-edge in the German basic chemical industry.
Today, more than 50 highly innovative companies, among them almost 20 manufacturers from all over the world, gather in one of Germany’s smallest but fastest moving-forward chemical parks, the ‘Chemical and Industrial Park of Zeitz’.
Manufacturers such as Italy’s Radici Chimica (adipic acid and cyclohexanol), US Puraglobe (base oils), Ukraine’s Interstarch (industrial starch), and home-grown Munzing (micronized waxes), Deurex (oil and chemical adsorbents) and Jowat (adhesives) have settled here.
The park provides optimal conditions both for large-scale and family-owned enterprises. It is managed by ‘Infra-Zeitz Servicegesellschaft’ which also runs the whole waterusage cycle for its clients: processing water, cooling water, deionized water, permeate, reserve steam, industrial wastewater treatment.
Numerous certifications testify they are coming at outstanding quality, continuous availability and competitive cost.
Infra-Zeitz’s on-site partners complete the package with services from HR recruitment to certified laboratory tests, and pilot installations.
The park is located only a few minutes car drive to one of Germany’s newcomer places to be, buzzing city of Leipzig.
We offer you a development and complex materials co operation: with the companies which have already settled in Elsteraue or with other companies of other Chemical Parks in the region.

The infrastructure and service concept which is specific for Elsteraue provides chemical companies with numerous advantages due to the concentration on main tasks, thus reducing costs.
CHEMIE- UND INDUSTRIEPARK ZEITZ - Der grüne Chemiepark!
“GREEN CHEMISTRY” INSTEAD OF LIGNITE
The Zeitz Chemical and Industrial Park is the ideal location for owner-managed, medium-sized companies, and especially water-intensive industries (chemicals, paper, biomass). The location is also characterized by its international atmosphere: companies from China, Italy, Ukraine and the USA, for example, work hand in hand with their German neighbours. More and more, our location is being identified as a site of sustainable chemistry. For instance, resident business Radici Chimica neutralises the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (from adipic acid production) by means of an innovatory power plant. Puralube, meanwhile, specialises in the re-refining of used oil, so that there is less need for new resources. Interstarch converts the renewable raw materials from wheat into industrially useful starch. The biorefinery Elsteraue produces pure methane from corn. A five MW photovoltaic solar plant feeds electricity into the grid of the park, which itself is a member of the so-called “Bioeconomy-cluster” and of the “Hypos” Green Hydrogen Initiative.
