Caramba Chemie

About us
Caramba is excellent!

And even officially, because since 2004 we are one of the “Brands of the Century” and were also allowed to receive this award for the year 2019. We are very proud of this, because it confirms the success story of our company, which began in 1903 with the registration as a registered trademark and made Caramba a synonym for all multi-oils and the problem solver for the automotive world.

We are still problem solvers. And have thereby undergone a rapid transformation towards becoming the leading manufacturer of innovative specialty chemicals for cleaning processes and the modification and protection of surfaces.

As a long-established company with around 300 employees at the three production and development locations in Duisburg, Bremen and Bad Kreuznach, we offer individual, customized solutions in industrial manufacturing processes for automobile manufacturers, car wash operators, logistics companies and industrial producers of metal, glass and plastic components ,

Our goal here is always the same and actually quite simple: we optimize the cleaning, modification and protection of material surfaces and thus increase the quality and functionality of the work processes and manufacturing processes on the customer side. And do not offer standardized products, but holistic, individual process solutions.

Or in the words of Managing Director Marketing & Sales, Caramba Chemie, Dr. Ing. Bernd Weyershausen, who actually puts it in a nutshell with his statement: “We want to be the Amazon of the chemical industry – with fast, efficient and closely related to the customer specialty chemicals solutions.”

In addition, Caramba is officially one of 190 newcomers to the DDW-Mittelstandsranking of the 10,000 most important German companies at the end of 2017. Caramba even made it into the top ten – we occupy 3rd place of the newcomers!
The ranking of Die Deutsche Wirtschaft permanently records and lists the most important German companies, which are majority owned by German entrepreneurial families and are below the threshold of 1 billion Euro annual turnover. Read more about the ranking and the placements here.
