Lanxess renames new headquarters building

Lanxess may still a year away from moving into its new home, yet anybody passing by the future site of the company’s global headquarters in Cologne, Germany will be left with no doubt as to whose digs it is. The specialty chemicals company has renamed the former Lufthansa building, which is currently undergoing renovations ahead of the arrival of Lanxess’ employees in the second half of 2013, and from now on it will be known as the Lanxess Tower. The name was chosen from more than 600 staff suggestions.
