    THE Heraeus Group is a leading technology conglomerate that dates back to 1660. It traces its roots to a family-owned German Pharmacy, but officially started in 1851 as a family portfolio.

    Today, the tech powerhouse has businesses present in the environment, energy, electronics, health, mobility and industrial sectors.

    To date, the group has 15,000 employees in over 40 countries worldwide.

    In South-east Asia, Singapore, there are two legal entities under Heraeus, Heraeus Asia Pacific Holding (the regional headquarters) and Heraeus Materials Singapore Pte Ltd. In FY 2018, the conglomerate turned over a revenue of 20.3 billion euros (S$32.4 billion).

    Heraeus believes that being an industry leader is about having a clear mission and vision, which leads to clarity in whatever the organisation undertakes.
