Future visionary with established traditions

C. Gerhardt has been owned by the same family for five generations, and as a result the company’s history has been shaped by the interaction between traditional values and forward-looking trends. Up to the present day, we have always focussed on continuously expanding our expertise, combining the latest technology with our long-standing tradition of craftmanship. This enables us to create innovations that are appreciated around the world. As an internationally active company, we are very aware of our responsibilities to society and the environment. Our aim is to survive in the long term and grow in a sustainable manner.

Business partners with close bonds

Our business relationships are also structured like family relationships. Long-lasting and reliable partnerships with our international representatives and with our customers are an important component in our sustainable growth plan. And we have not lost sight of our social responsibility: nature conservation, support for social projects and our commitments in our home region are very dear to our hearts. Together with our employees, we also try to play an active role through campaigns like sponsored runs, clean-ups and rubbish collection days; we are always open to new ideas from outside or in-house suggestions.

Analysis specialist with a sense of curiosity

Life is a learning process. And so is working at C. Gerhardt: on the one hand, constantly expanding our specialist knowledge is crucial to continuous optimisation and further development of our apparatuses. We try to always think outside the box, and we are not afraid to make use of appropriate technologies from other fields or collaborate with universities and other research institutes. On the other hand, we feel very strongly about passing on our knowledge to our partners and customers. After all, with the right knowledge, others can understand our equipment even better and operate it all the more reliably. What’s more, the right maintenance and analysis routine will significantly extend a system’s useful life.

Supervising processes with understanding

When you buy a Gerhardt apparatus, you are not just buying a piece of laboratory equipment. We support you throughout the entire purchasing process, starting from the initial consultation, through to installation and the first test operation in your laboratory. And it doesn’t stop there: our maintenance and servicing concept is tailored to your specific sample throughput and your laboratory environment. Furthermore, our service team is there to assist you with technical problems or difficult sample matrices, helping you make the most of your equipment.

Treating employees with respect

Our employees are our greatest asset. We offer a wide variety of further training opportunities, health-promoting measures, flexible working hours and family-friendly working conditions to make the atmosphere at work as pleasant as possible. We are always open to feedback and suggested improvements, and we encourage our employees to get involved in shaping their own workplace with the help of flat hierarchies and a culture of honest communication.

Manufacturing equipment with quality

We also believe in acting responsibly when it comes to our products. We want to live up to the value people expect from “made in Germany”. To help ensure this, we focus on regional suppliers, sustainable production and long-lasting materials. In addition, our apparatuses are certified in accordance with the international standard ISO 9001, meaning they can also be used in strongly regulated laboratories.
