A look over the shoulder "On site in Aschau am Inn"

Meet our specialists for high-performance military propulsion systems and chemical intermediates. Come and join our team!

The products of Nitrochemie Aschau GmbH can be found in many defence and civilian applications. In ammunition for large and medium calibres, but also as chemical intermediates that are used for example in toothpaste or medicines.

Those who work here experience production and development at the highest level, also and especially in areas of application that might not immediately spring to mind.

Our colleagues are enthusiastic and proud of their work. Zoom in when they take us into their everyday lives.

Working in one of the most beautiful regions of Germany

Our company grounds extend over 89 hectares in the midst of forests and fields. Deer and other wild animals are often seen as fellow residents, which one encounters in the morning. Our location offers a quality of life close to nature with a high recreational value.

I am proud to be a part of Nitrochemie and to contribute to the global challenges. Here I am seen as a person and always encouraged as an employee. My main tasks in production for actuating systems include the manufacture of various sleeve parts, which go through different processes, as well as the organisation of personnel.

Alexander and Eugen Polanski are brothers and a real power duo in Aschau am Inn.
