Merck – Werkführung in Darmstadt (1 Std. 30 Min.) – mit Merck-Gastgeber

We will take you on an exciting tour of the Merck campus, where you will gain an insight into various innovative research and production areas. Delve even deeper into the three business sectors and the history of the company and experience how Merck is shaping the future!

Your role as host: The Merck host assumes the central role of contact person for the group of visitors during site tours. He or she pre-registers the guests at the visitor reception and coordinates the reception and accompaniment of the guests during the site tour.

Participation in the site tour, i.e. travelling on the bus, is obligatory for the host as the central point of contact for the guests! If this is not possible in exceptional cases, Darmstadt Marketing must be notified in advance of a suitable representative who will take over the task and be present throughout the site tour.

Cost of the site tour: Participation in the site tour is free of charge for the group of visitors! Please note, however, that the costs for the bus used must be covered by the respective Merck host. The costs will be charged to the cost centre you specify. We will be happy to provide you with the exact costs on request.

Information for visitor groups

Meeting point and duration
The meeting/starting point for the plant tours is the visitor reception in the Innovation Centre, Frankfurter Str. 250, Building B31. Please arrive at the visitor reception at least 15 minutes before the start of the tour to speed up admission and allow approx. 2 hours for the entire site tour.

Guided tours usually last 90 minutes, individual arrangements for shorter tours (60 minutes) must be made directly with Darmstadt Marketing.

Bus
The Merck host will organise a bus. If the group arrives by bus, the guests get off at the car park behind A160 and walk with the guide to the visitor reception. The empty bus drives onto the site via the access road in Virchowstraße and picks the guests up again in front of building A3.

Pre-registration of guests
The Merck host is responsible for registering groups at the visitor reception. So that we can prepare the visitor passes in good time, please register participants via this link at least 1 week (5 working days) before your visit.

Please provide us with further information about your group, e.g. participants with wheelchairs or walking aids, in the ‘Additional remarks/more information’ field.

After registration by the host, an automatic safety briefing will take place.
