What Internorm Kunststofftechnik does

Internorm Kunststofftechnik GmbH is a privately held German plastics manufacturer founded in 1987 and headquartered in Damme, Germany, where it operates a 26,000 m² production site and an in-house research laboratory. The company develops and produces custom components made from polyurethane (PUR) and thermoplastics, spanning three core manufacturing processes: PUR casting for prototypes and small series up to about 1,000 units, single- and two-component (1K/2K) injection molding for series production above 1,000 units, and assembly of ready-to-install sub-systems including purchased parts, surface finishing, and final inspection. A fourth specialization is polyurethane roll and roller coatings engineered for longer service life and lower wear than rubber.

The company's customer base is exclusively industrial and B2B, served through a direct enterprise sales motion with technical consultation from initial concept through series production. Internorm sells into seven vertical end-markets: agricultural technology, food industry (with food-grade and metal-detectable certified components), construction machinery, conveyor technology/intralogistics, general mechanical engineering, roller coating applications, and energy technology. The offering is bundled with integrated services — consulting, R&D, design and in-house toolmaking, and certified quality management — positioning the firm as a development partner rather than a build-to-print shop. Differentiators cited include BSFZ research recognition, ISO 9001:2015 quality and ISO 50001:2018 energy management certifications, and proprietary food-contact detectable PUR formulations.

Revenue is generated through direct hardware sales of custom-manufactured plastic components and assemblies under individually quoted project pricing; no public pricing, marketplace channels, or distribution intermediaries exist. The company employs approximately 320 staff, runs eight structured apprenticeship tracks, and operates as part of the GRIMME Group industrial conglomerate alongside agricultural-machinery affiliates. Disclosed operating geography is limited to Germany, and no external funding, M&A, or international expansion have been reported.
