Mission

We are part of a whole

We have set ourselves the goal of making a significant technical contribution to improving human health and safety.

Our mission is what inspires us to uphold the responsibility we have. Our simulation chambers help our customers with their work in research, product development and quality assurance, improving the health and safety of people. Every single one of our employees shares this sense of responsibility – but our dedication to what we do goes even further:

We also do our part for the region and the community in which we are based, supporting projects in the arts, culture and sports. Additionally, we champion environmental causes, advocate for research and promote training for specialists.

Growth and vision

Made by BINDER

The company founder, Peter M. Binder, achieved a milestone in laboratory technology in 1983 with the development of the hot air steriliser. In just three decades, BINDER has evolved to become a world-leading specialist in simulation chambers for scientific and industrial laboratories.

By consistently pursuing a premium brand strategy and developing innovations, we retain our independence as a family company. We also maintain our focus on encouraging international growth.

We have set clear goals for ourselves in order to bolster the success we have achieved: we are committed to exceeding customers’ expectations and upholding the responsibility we have towards our employees. These values reflect the success of our business and our obligation to act both sustainably and responsibly.

Best conditions for your success

Innovation is part of our DNA.

Our customers – our inspiration

Every year, we invest more than 10 percent of our sales back into research and development – putting us above the average. We also boast a higher-than-average number of specialists working in research and development: refrigeration, control technology and cybernetics technicians, hardware and software developers, and experts in light, humidity and climate simulation.

Their work involves ensuring that a whole host of electronic and mechanical parameters work in perfect harmony within highly complex products. The results demonstrate outstanding precision in whichever area they are focused on – temperature homogeneity, humidity control or light simulation.

We see this success as a vital investment in our future because our customers benefit from the sophisticated details we have developed in our simulation chambers.

Our patents, innovations and developments are based on close observation of the market and rigorous analysis of its needs. They are what emerges from in-depth discussions with users – and sometimes from our close collaboration with large, internationally renowned research institutes.

Our responsibility

Best conditions for the environment

As a family-run company, making decisions with sustainability and the longer term in mind is something we do as a matter of course – as is upholding our commitment to pursuing environmental goals without compromise.
We were doing this even before sustainability was the word on everyone’s lips – in fact, it’s a focus our business has had since the very beginning.
We maintain an end-to-end approach that extends from our production chain right through to our customer service. We do this because our goal is to make a significant technical contribution to improving human health and safety.
We want to have a positive impact on the world and be a driver for change – for a better future; one worth living in.

Social responsibility

In a world where social responsibility and commitment are of vital importance, we believe that BINDER – as a family business – has an obligation to do its part for those in need.

We have set a clear example of this through our long-standing support for St. Nikolaus Children’s Hospice, a place where terminally ill children and their families experience loving care.
