The Symrise Group was formed in 2003 with the merger of Haarmann & Reimer and Dragoco

With the roots of both companies stretching back as far as 1874, we draw on a rich heritage of innovation and excellence. In 2006, we went public on the German Stock Exchange as the biggest European IPO of the year and have spent the subsequent over ten years ambitiously building on our history of success.
