Caramba Holding GmbH

About us
The Caramba Chemical Group is a leader in specialty chemicals.

United under this umbrella, our three strong and independently operating brands ambratec, Caramba and KENT develop, produce and sell innovative special products for cleaning, care, maintenance and servicing as well as for the modification and protection of material surfaces.

With a total of more than 1,000 colleagues in 8 European countries, we belong to the internationally established BERNER Group (annual turnover: more than 1 billion euros), a value-oriented family business that focuses on long-term, sustainable success.

What makes us different? We are different!

As a corporate group, transformation is part of our DNA.

The speed with which our customers and the changes in the market demand us anew every day is a positive incentive and an obligation to always find new and better answers, to adapt to individual needs and to respond perfectly to them.

That’s why we keep reinventing ourselves, continuously analyzing the latest trends. Each and every one of us questions each day whether what he is doing is right – and if one could not do otherwise. As long as different means better.

Consequently, we need real talent and suitable types who understand that change is good. Clever minds who care about content and personal responsibility. Just people who see this transformation as an opportunity for themselves have not arrived at the destination and who want to evolve. We want to inspire opportunity seekers who would like to be inspired by and in the Caramba Chemie Group.

The areas in which we give gas to not only witness the ongoing development of the Caramba Chemie Group but, above all, to drive our own, are manifold:

Key account, internal sales, development department, marketing or IT are just a few of the fields in which you can be active with us – with the emphasis on “active”. The Caramba Chemie Group still has a real “hands on” mentality. The paths are short, the hierarchies really flat and working in agile, dynamic teams is our everyday life.

Teamwork makes us different. Because in the end we are all connected to each other anyway: through the chemistry, the desire for something new, our team spirit and the attitude that even specialty chemicals is a business that has to pay off in the end. For our customers as well as for us as a company. And of course, and above all, for our employees.

What still connects us?

However different the background, background and experience of our employees in the individual areas are – they all live a common corporate culture and the commitment to values ​​that are important to us: courage, desire for achievement, networking, responsibility, commitment and pride as well as the certainty Be a member of a great team. As a result, our employees make our success as a strong corporate group and the permanent dynamic change possible in the first place. Our CEO, Ms Ingrid Lohse, also spoke to the CHEManager about the company values ​​and described their immense importance. The full article entitled “Values ​​as a Power Source: Ingrid Lohse Leads the Caramba Group with Mind and Heart” (issue 6/2108) readhere .

Beyond these values, there is another important feature that unites us: our in-depth expertise. Because we can say with pride that sooner or later our employees will be absolute specialists in what they do – that is what we take care of and that is why our competitors envy us. Only in this way can we ultimately guarantee an eye-to-eye exchange and cooperation – not only across all hierarchical levels within the Caramba Chemie Group, but also with our customers. By understanding them and their specific requirements in all processes, we are in a position to always find the best, individual solution for our customers. And to implement them together with you. Tailor-made.

Three business areas, one common goal.

Our three leading brands within the group stand for our three business fields and focus with their strengths consistently on the respective individual customer requirements:

Caramba, the officially recognized “Brand of the Century”, is the leading manufacturer of innovative specialty chemicals for cleaning processes. By this we mean the treatment of surfaces – with tailored solutions for car manufacturers, car wash operators, logistics service providers and industrial production companies.

As a Europe-wide operating company, KENT is one of the leading providers of high-performance chemical-technical products for cleaning, care, repair and maintenance in the automotive, industrial and marine sectors.

ambratec, the specialist in facility chemistry, ensures the functional and restorative cleaning of buildings and outdoor facilities.

We act as a group – and above all as a team. Are you one of them?

We are not just looking for experienced or young talents. In the Caramba Chemie Group, we need talent seekers, adventurers, lateral and further thinkers, who are prepared to continue along the path we have embarked on and, in addition, to discover new, previously unknown ways. For yourself and for us. Because we want to continue to change and continue to grow. And we encourage you to do so in person – by developing your individual talents and showing appreciation for what you achieve with us.
