AHLEN, Germany–(BUSINESS WIRE)– LR Health & Beauty continues to grow and is expanding its production capacities. The most modern production facility for LR Aloe Vera products in Europe is being built at the headquarters of the network marketing company in Ahlen (Westphalia, Germany) until December 2017. LR invests EUR 4.5 million in high-tech machinery alone and underscores its leading position in the production and marketing of first-class Aloe Vera products, which are distributed by LR sales partners.

The new Aloe Vera production plant is part of LR’s sustainable growth strategy. On an area of approx. 4,000 m2, the popular LR Aloe Vera Drinking Gels, of which LR has sold more than 55 million litres since 2002, will be produced and dispatched starting from the end of the year. “Aloe Vera products are one of the core competencies of LR. We have made Aloe Vera popular in Germany and boast the most extensive know-how in this area. To meet the increasing demand by our sales partners, we are expanding our production capacities in Ahlen,” explained Dr. Thomas Stoffmehl, CEO of LR Health & Beauty.

Quality has top priority for LR. The highest hygienic standards apply at the production site. The tanks used for the production of the Aloe Vera Drinking Gels are manufactured individually; there are no ready-made solutions here. The dimensions are huge. Each of the three high-tech containers is 6.5 metres high with a capacity of 39,000 litres. The machinery corresponds to the latest state of the art.

Another highlight of the new building is the so-called skywalk. A 40-metre-long walkway will be built on the first floor which runs in parallel to the production rooms. It will be glazed on one side so that visitors can follow the individual production steps live – from blending through to filling of the bottles and packaging. “This serves to reinforce our claim ‘Made in Germany’ with highest quality standards which become tangible for our LR sales partners through our transparent production,” explains Dr. Thomas Stoffmehl.
