A strong community for the plastics industry
Support association
The Fördergemeinschaft für das Kunststoff-Zentrum in Leipzig e. V. (Support association) was founded in 1991 and is the sole shareholder of Kunststoff-Zentrum in Leipzig gGmbH. Already at the foundation of the sponsoring association 50 companies and institutions were involved.
The purpose of the support association is to promote science and research at the KUZ as a non-profit institute of plastics technology. At the same time, the support association and its members benefit from an interesting and lively exchange within the network. Decisive for success are communication, exchange and cooperation. You too can actively participate in the development of productive and result-oriented network relationships.
