Rath – a top location
then and now
Rath is located close to the airport, exhibition centre and the A44 and A52
motorway intersections.
Theodorstraße Düsseldorf
Good location
T
he Theodorstraße business area
is in an excellent location in
northern Düsseldorf near to the
airport (2 km), the airport railway station
and the exhibition centre, and it is also
close to the A44 and A52 motorway intersections, offering access to both the
east-west and north-south motorway
network. It is therefore the ideal location
for business. Theodorstraße, the dualcarriageway road running through the
redevelopment area, provides both the
name and the infrastructure. Office
buildings with up to seven storeys and
other developments which reflect the
business park’s image can be built on
Theodorstraße itself. The other areas extending to the tube factory and the Zum
Gut Heiligendonk ring road or the A44
motorway are suitable for combined hall
and office building developments.
The business area on either side of Theodorstraße is 85 hectares in size.

Good companies
T
he companies located here are
predominantly in the wholesale
and export, logistics, sales, services
and vehicle trading businesses. These traditional Düsseldorf business sectors took
advantage of the opportunity to move
their business operations into new buildings on Theodorstraße. Another encouraging development is the high proportion of Japanese companies that have set
up their new corporate headquarters on
Theodorstraße, consolidating Düsseldorf’s
significance as a Japanese hub. In 2011,
the world’s largest manufacturer of CNC
machine tools, Mazak, built a new technology centre on Theodorstraße, creating
IDR is currently constructing the new headquarters for Technip
Germany where 500 people will be working.
40 jobs. IDR (Industrieterrains Düsseldorf-Reisholz AG) commenced construction of the new headquarters for Hilti
Deutschland and Technip Germany in
2014. Hilti’s north German regional
headquarters have been located on Theodorstraße since 2008. The new building with a training and marketing centre
for approximately 50 employees is further
proof of the company‘s commitment to the
Theodorstraße area. Technip Germany’s
new 15,000 m 2 headquarters are located
next door. At the end of 2015 around 500
employees will commence work there.
The Technip Group is a world leader in
project management, engineering and
construction for the energy industry.
Recent additions to the Theodorstraße
area are Balcke Dürr and SPX Cooling,
two companies in the SPX Group, which
have provided around 280 new jobs.
Hiltis’s north German regional headquarters have been located on
Theodorstraße since 2008. The new building constructed by IDR is a sign
of the company’s commitment to the location.
Theodorstraße Düsseldorf
D
IBAG Industriebau developers
implemented several buildings
to the north of Theodorstraße,
directly opposite the ISS DOME, in their
TheodorPark project. Theodorstraße
180, a building designed by HPP Hentrich-Petschnigg & Partner, is entirely
occupied by Balcke Dürr and SPX Cooling. The sister building has housed the
CEMEX headquarters and its approximately 280 employees since the end of
2010. Two connected combination buildings were erected in the rear section of
TheodorPark. They are used by logistics
service provider Logwin Solutions Media
GmbH and other tenants. Two approximately 12,000 m² logistics buildings are
located parallel to the A44 motorway –

Building materials manufacturer CEMEX has its headquarters at
Theodorstraße 178.
surrounded by a green area at the centre.
One is exclusively used by ComPass Logistik
GmbH, Düsseldorf’s leading IT logistics
service provider, while the other has several
occupants.
The design of the Fiat dealership building (Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia) is the
prototype for other Fiat dealerships
throughout Germany. The Dehner Garten-Center, close to the crossroads where
the streets Zum Gut Heiligendonk and
Am Hülserhof meet, has 6,400 m² of
retail space and sells a comprehensive
range of gardening products. Heating
manufacturer Viessmann built a sales
branch with showrooms and training
facilities nearby in 2010.
Excellent access to the motorway network offers key
advantages to logistics service providers.
The number of companies that have moved to the
location in recent years confirms its attractiveness.

T
he municipal subsidiary Industrieterrains Düsseldorf-Reisholz AG
(IDR) is the second-largest
project developer on Theodorstraße.
It implemented the “Gewerbeareal
Nord” (North Business Park) project
comprising offices and production halls
on an approximate area of 60,000 m² at
Theodorstraße 293–297. The reputed
Japanese wholesale and logistics services
companies, Kikkoman Trading Europe,
Nippon Express Deutschland, Yusen
Air & Sea Service and FUJITSU TEN,
have moved into three of the four developed properties. All have leased office
and hall areas of between 1,000 m² and
15,400 m².
Bosch, a security technology market leader,
moved to Theodorstraße in 2007. More
than 250 people work there. There is also
a 4,500 m² customer presentation centre
equipped with state-of-the-art technology.
This is where Bosch offers custom building technology solutions and 24-hour
services extending from intruder and
fire alarm systems to video, access control, PA and management systems. IDR
secured Hankyu and FUJITSU TEN as
tenants for the fourth development. There
are also additional prestigious office
buildings and halls for lease. At the end
of 2010, Küchen-Aktuell opened a 5,800 m²
building (showroom for 160 kitchens).
Küchen-Aktuell is a fast-growing kitchen
company with 14 showrooms in Germany.
Another highlight is the 35,000 m² BMW
dealership to the west of the ISS DOME.
It is a new building designed by the
famous Hamburg-based architects BRT.
Reflecting the Düsseldorf tradition of
including hotels in business parks, supplementary hotel projects were also implemented there. There is a B&B hotel
opposite the ISS DOME, south of Theodorstraße, which was completed in 2010.
The family-run Van der Valk Hotel Düsseldorf GmbH, which opened in summer
2010, has 194 rooms and a 2,400 m² event
area. Designed by architects Ortner &
Ortner, the hotel has 15 floors and excellent facilities that make it both a new
landmark and a bonus to the companies
in the business area.
The four-star superior Van der Valk Airporthotel with conference facilities
and restaurants provides added value to local companies.
2,500 people already work in the
Theodorstraße business area.
Theodorstraße Düsseldorf
The ISS DOME
T
he construction and opening of
the new ISS DOME event venue
in 2006 encouraged a whole host
of other companies to move to the area.
The ISS DOME isn’t just the home venue
of the DEG ice hockey team, it is also one
of the most f lexible and modern event
arenas in Germany. With a capacity of
around 13,400 spectators, it ideally com-
plements the existing “Düsseldorf Arena
Family”. The ISS DOME is operated by
Düsseldorf Congress Sport & Event GmbH,
and it was named after ISS (International
Service System), one of Germany’s leading facility service providers with around
12,000 employees and its German headquarters in Düsseldorf.
HOBERG & DRIESCH
S
teel tubing company HOBERG &
DRIESCH built its new headquarters on Theodorstraße back in 2008.
The development of its Düsseldorf site
as the “German Distribution Centre”
followed in 2014. Today, HOBERG &
DRIESCH has around 160 employees in
Rath, plus over 42,000 m² of warehouse
and logistics facilities.
HOBERG & DRIESCH is a family-run
company that was founded in Düsseldorf
in 1948. Today it is one of the leading
steel tubing companies in Europe.
Vallourec Germany
T
he Vallourec Group manufactures
hot-rolled seamless steel tubes,
predominantly for the energy
markets and industrial applications.
Düsseldorf-based Vallourec Deutschland
GmbH operates three production lines
in Düsseldorf and one in Mülheim/Ruhr.
Some 2,300 people work on Theodorstraße alone. Every year, Vallourec
Deutschland manufactures around
800,000 metric tons of seamless steel tubes.
The new building housing the headquarters
and the new Vallourec Research Center
Germany demonstrates the company’s
commitment to the location of Rath. Its
industrial research projects focus on new
steel grades for future boiler and linepipe applications.
