Heraeus Materials Singapore Pte Ltd named Team of the Year in the Manufacturing category

The company has achieved high growth and consistent innovation due to strong employee engagement.

Since it was founded in 1985, Heraeus Materials Singapore Pte. Ltd. (HMSL), a subsidiary of the German technology giant, has focused its efforts on advancing technology in multiple industries. Over the years, the company’s business portfolio has expanded significantly, and now consists of four manufacturing sites and a logistics center for precious metals.

HMSL’s manufacturing capabilities support industries in medical components, electronics, photovoltaic and precious metals. The well-being of employees is our utmost priority and we place a strong emphasis in the areas of safety and health and the environment. Employee engagement is strengthened through many activities such as recognition awards and appreciation luncheons, monthly town halls, quarterly sports & team building events, weekly team exercises, and joint activities in corporate social responsibility. Employees view HMSL as a highly favorable workplace as evident through the Culture survey result.

This inspiring growth and positive culture were achieved due to the commitment of the team. As an acknowledgment of their efforts, the judges at the SBR Management Excellence Awards 2020 granted the company the Team of the Year prize in the Manufacturing category.

One of the key drivers for growth and innovation in HMSL is Heraeus Medical Components Singapore (HMCS) which was established in 2012. It started with a small team of 6 engineers which has grown to over 100 employees. The medical wires produced at HMCS are mainly used in cardiovascular, neurovascular, neuromodulation therapies as well as sensors in continuous glucose monitoring applications. HMCS has seen rapid growth fueled by products which improves lives of patients around the world.

This can only be achieved through close collaboration with the world’s leading medical technology companies. Heraeus has a robust stage-gate process for rapid product commercialization. The Heraeus Production System drives manufacturing excellence to deliver quality products to our customers.

In the area of innovation, the R&D team continuously pushes the boundaries of technology with the development of next generation processing technologies in the field of coatings & laser ablation. The development of these advanced technologies was supported by the Singapore Government via EDB grants. HMCS is the Medical Wire R&D center for the global Medical Components business.

Another noteworthy subsidiary is Heraeus Asia Pacific Holding Pte. Ltd. (established in 2013), which provides corporate support services to all sites. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the company provides accommodation and allowances to support employees who are affected by the border closures.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
