Matt Wease, Director of Sales and MarketingIt designs, engineers, and builds safe and reliable systems to meet clients' process requirements, schedules, and budgets. Whether it is production or high-quality processing needs, the company provides businesses with the expertise to develop and materialize a customized solution for their product lifecycle. It also offers field service, upgrades, refurbishment, spare parts, components, trials, and rentals.
“Our ability to support the engineering, installation, and validation of process systems, in addition to providing the primary equipment, is a unique value proposition that sets us apart from other manufacturers in the industry,” says Matt Wease, director of sales and marketing, De Dietrich Process Systems.
Its strategically located manufacturing sites around the globe enable it to supply equipment locally to its clients. In addition, the company provides them with complete equipment maintenance and support through its worldwide network of local tech centers, guaranteeing on-site assistance regardless of location.
As a testament to its commitment to client success, De Dietrich Process Systems successfully completed a facility scaling project that involved a complete engineering study in addition to supplying the equipment. The client of this particular project had been using DDPS equipment, like reactors, glass systems, filters, and dryers, for years and wanted to expand their facility and add a new process manufacturing building.
The company conducted an initial engineering study providing a detailed proposal for all the equipment, including a process skid that encompasses a glass-lined reactor, a Hastelloy reactor, and a glass-lined receiver. It also supplied a Hastelloy filter/dryer with a stainless steel receiver, a cooling tower with a pumping station, five temperature control modules, and three vacuum systems. It delivered programmable logic controllers networked together to enable clients to monitor and control equipment from any human-machine interface, ensuring convenience and complete satisfaction.
It is the result of this convenience and satisfaction that many clients rely on De Dietrich Process Systems’ high-quality products, tailored solutions, and on-demand services to meet their present and future needs. It takes a proactive approach to developing technologies and solutions to address the dynamic needs of the industry, including reaction, filtration, drying, extraction, distillation, and heat transfer. De Dietrich Process Systems also establishes strategic relationships with the clients through a quarterly business review, allowing them to express their needs and enabling the company to adapt its strategy accordingly. Its ability to engineer systems based on clients’ requirements and provide comprehensive support services beyond installation and start-up makes it an invaluable resource for pharmaceutical companies.
Our ability to support the engineering, installation, and validation of process systems, in addition to providing the primary equipment, is a unique value proposition and sets us apart from other manufacturers in the industry

Description
De Dietrich Process Systems is a leading global provider of process equipment, engineered systems, and process solutions for pharmaceutical, fine chemical, and allied industries. Its wide portfolio of equipment and systems includes reactors, filters, dryers, distillation and power handling equipment, and heat exchangers.
This merger allows De Dietrich to enrich and broaden its portfolio of solutions for its customers. With four additional production sites in Europe, it allows De Dietrich Process Systems to become an undisputed European leader with a strategic commitment to local manufacturing (France, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary, Czech Republic). This purchase also enables the group to extend its presence in international markets and consolidate its leadership in Asia and the United States.
Through its recognised brands, HEINKEL, COMBER, BOLZ-SUMMIX, and JONGIA, the HEINKEL group has established itself as a premium provider of solid-liquid separation solutions, drying, and mixing systems, mainly for the pharmaceutical industry. It has established privileged relationships with its international clients through its expertise and technological innovations.
A robust, high-performing, and local model serving a rapidly evolving industry
By complementing its offerings in emerging markets such as recycling and the environment, this acquisition positions De Dietrich Process Systems on a continuous growth trajectory with revenue prospects exceeding 300 million euros and solid operational performance. This is the first major external growth operation conducted following the 100% takeover of the company by the family holding company (Financière Jaergerthal) in January 2023.
Jacques Moulin, president of De Dietrich Process Systems, said: "De Dietrich Process Systems and the HEINKEL Group share common values, including family values, and the ambition to preserve a strong manufacturing industry in Europe. The technologies provided by the newly formed group are essential for the manufacturing of active ingredients and vital chemicals in Europe. We contribute to the continent's economic growth and reinforce our commitment to a more local and sustainable industry.
We further improve our ability to anticipate the new needs of our clients by providing them with ever more innovative, efficient, and sustainable solutions."
Marc Antoine de Dietrich, chairman of Financière Jaergerthal, said: "We are very pleased to welcome the HEINKEL Group, which benefits from a very strong technological reputation. De Dietrich Process Systems is thus strengthening its historic presence in a fast-growing sector, as well as its European footprint. This new entity is fully in line with our strategy of long-term investment in the sustainable health sector. The transaction illustrates the commitment of the de Dietrich family, as long-term shareholders, to fully contribute to the development of the company".
The presentation of all the solutions offered by the new group will take place at the upcoming Achema 2024 fair, from 10-15th June in Frankfurt, which will bring together the main players in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
