Haren/Vreden, 19 February 2026 | Röchling Industrial is acquiring the operating business of the insolvent Terbrack Kunststoff GmbH & Co. KG, based in Vreden, Germany, with effect from 1 March 2026. Through the acquisition of the operating business and its employees by the newly founded Röchling Industrial Vreden GmbH, the globally active plastics processor is expanding its product portfolio and strengthening its long-term competitiveness. 

Traditional Company with Strong Technical Expertise
Founded in 1954, Terbrack is a pioneer specializing in the processing of high-quality engineering plastics. The company manufactures semi-finished products such as pressed sheets, extruded profiles and round rods, as well as a wide range of finished components for mechanical and plant engineering, conveyor technology, the packaging industry, and the chemical and food industries. Terbrack therefore brings valuable specialist expertise to the group. By integrating a second site for pressed thermoplastic semi-finished products, Röchling Industrial strengthens security of supply for its customers and expands its product portfolio in established markets. 

“By acquiring Terbrack, we are seizing an important opportunity to strategically expand our network and significantly increase reliability for our customers,” emphasizes Wilhelm Korte-Dirxen, Chief Operating Officer of Röchling Industrial. “Terbrack ideally complements our existing know-how and strengthens our production network at a key point. The team’s high level of expertise and the established technologies open up additional opportunities for us to sustainably further consolidate our market position.” 


Expansion of the Production Network
The new operation provides Röchling Industrial with additional capacities: the additional site increases redundancy within the production network and enables greater flexibility for customers. At the same time, the acquisition underlines a clear commitment to Germany as an industry location and strengthens regional value creation. 

 
Strong Future Prospects for the Workforce in Vreden
Both companies share a family-owned business tradition and a long-term perspective. “As a family-owned company, we place great value on stability and continuity. It is particularly important to us to offer all Terbrack employees reliable future prospects. For this reason, through the newly founded Röchling Industrial Vreden GmbH, we are taking over more than 100 employees at the Vreden site and, together with them and their expertise, will help shape the future of Röchling Industrial,” says Daniel Fritz, Chief Financial Officer of Röchling Industrial.
