05-Feb-2025

Uhlmann Pac-Systeme is honored with the TOP 100 Award of the innovation competition of the same name and can now bear the TOP 100 seal 2025. KOCH Pac-Systeme is another Uhlmann Group company among the TOP 100. The award has been presented by compamedia for over 30 years to medium-sized companies that stand out for their special innovative achievements. Companies are honored in three size categories; Uhlmann Pac-Systeme receives the award in the largest category with over 200 employees.

Transparent ticket system for innovations

For Uhlmann Pac-Systeme, the world's leading system provider for the packaging of pharmaceuticals, this award is a special confirmation of its own corporate philosophy. The jury's assessment particularly highlighted the fact that the Laupheim-based company implemented 80% of all suggestions for improvement in 2023 thanks to a transparent ticket system for invention reports and continuous improvement processes. "Especially in the pharmaceutical industry, with its strict regulations and system-critical importance, innovations and their effective implementation are a central component of a safe supply of medicines. This award is therefore a great confirmation of our work and a motivation to continue looking for new ideas and approaches," says Cristian Reiter, CTO of Uhlmann Pac-Systeme.

Award on a scientific basis

The award is based on a scientific selection process in which the innovative strength of the participating companies is analyzed on the basis of more than 100 criteria, which are divided into five categories: Innovation-promoting top management, innovation climate, innovative processes and organization, external orientation/open motivation and innovation success. The aim is to determine in which companies innovations are the result of structured innovation management and do not just occur by chance. The selection process is led by innovation researcher Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Franke. He explains: "Innovation means acting instead of reacting, it means actively shaping the future instead of hoping that nothing will change."

The prize will be awarded on June 27, 2025 at a ceremony in the Rheingoldhalle in Mainz as part of the German SME Summit. The evening will be hosted by the well-known TV presenter and science journalist Ranga Yogeshwar.
