Schirm

Schirm GmbH became part of Imperial within the context of the takeover of Lehnkering in 2011. Schirm manufactures chemical products on behalf of the chemical industry; substances and admixtures react with each other in small reactors under different temperature and pressure conditions (synthesis). The chemicals are deployed, for example, in agriculture or in the elastic, rubber and adhesive industries. Other customers are found in the electronics, construction and automobile industries. Schirm also manufactures different mixtures of active and auxiliary substances (formulation). Its services include filling the new liquid and solid products automatically into different sizes of containers, packaging them and sending them to the ordering party's customers too. Schirm has four business locations in Germany: at Schönebeck (Saxony-Anhalt), Baar-Ebenhausen (Bavaria), Lübeck (Schleswig-Holstein) and Wolfenbüttel (Lower Saxony). The production company Schirm USA, Inc. in Ennis/Texas, USA is also part of Schirm. The chemicals manufacturer AECI, which has its headquarters in South Africa, is known as a producer of specialty chemicals. Its customers come from the agricultural sector as well as the mining and food industries, among others.
