On 18 September 2026 Kneipp opened a new factory building at its Ochsenfurt-Hohestadt headquarters, investing around €65 million in the new build, plant modernisation, automation and digital processes — according to the company the largest single investment in its more than 135-year history. Production floor space doubles from roughly 5,000 to 10,000 m²; Ochsenfurt-Hohestadt is the company's only production site, employs around 430 people and supplies 16 countries in Europe and Asia from there. No figure for newly created jobs was given. (Source: OTS/Kneipp GmbH, 18 Sep 2026)
