Blow-fill-seal packaging machinery for pharma, chemical, and food industries
Rommelag manufactures specialized aseptic filling machines (bottelpack BFS systems) for pharmaceutical, chemical, and food companies across 80+ countries. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-operations-first organization: SAP dominates (core system + Master Data Governance + Materials Management module), with emerging cloud and containerization (AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes) supporting digitalization and supply-chain modernization. Heavy intern hiring (27 positions) paired with active plant expansions and low-code platform development suggests capacity building for both operational scale and digital transformation.
