Evonik Makes Birmingham Its Global Medical Devices Center As Part Of A $50 Million Expansion
By Michael Tomberlin
Germany-based Evonik said today Birmingham is now home to its global Competence Center for Medical Devices following a $50 million expansion in what Gov. Kay Ivey called its “second home.”
The company has invested those millions over the past four years in a number of innovations that position the Magic City as the center of biomaterials and medical polymers when it comes to medical devices and pharmaceuticals.
“I’m always proud when a new company announces that they’re coming to Alabama, but I’m especially proud when an existing firm announces that they want to expand,” Ivey said. “Today, your presence is larger here than anywhere in North America. We are proud that you are calling Alabama and Birmingham your home. I think it’s fair to say that Alabama is Evonik’s second home.”
