about
microinnova
At Microinnova, we are dedicated to bridging the gap between process development and modular plant engineering. Founded in 2003 by Dr. Dirk Kirschneck in Allerheiligen bei Wildon, Austria, we have evolved from a microreactor-focused company to a specialized provider of turnkey solutions for continuous manufacturing. Our boutique approach ensures tailored services – from initial process development to the final delivery of fully installed plants. We offer our clients a one-stop-shop, by first identifying issues in their processes, working out solutions, and then realizing these solutions.
