Tobias Lüssi, CEO of Compar said “Our business in the medical and pharmaceutical market in Ireland is growing strongly. To be successful, we must be close to our customers. I look forward to our success in Ireland and I would like to thank the Irish Government and IDA Ireland for their support.”

Compar’s client base is spread across a number of industries including Lifesciences, Automotive, Packaging and Electronics. Compar has selected Waterford as its Irish base due to the high level of engineering skills available, proximity to 3rd level institutions, as well as the proximity to several large players in the medical and pharmaceutical industry based there.

The roles created at their new facility in Waterford will focus across a range of professions, including mechanical and electrical engineering, finance, sales, marketing and support functions.
