Specialty chemical resins and building materials manufacturer, five generations family-owned
F. Willich manufactures polyurethane, silicate, epoxy, and phenolic resins for construction, civil engineering, and industrial applications across Germany and Poland. The stack is enterprise-grade (SAP, Dynamics NAV, Power BI) but hiring velocity is minimal and heavily weighted toward marketing, operations, and purchasing roles—suggesting the company is optimizing internal processes and export reach rather than scaling new product lines. Pain points cluster around supply-chain resilience, dangerous-goods compliance, and internationalization, not product innovation.
