In the year 1847 the history of the company Leinfelder began with a small paper mill in Schrobenhausen. In 1999, it came to the merger with Schwedt Papier & Karton to Leipa Leinfelder GmbH. In Schrobenhausen there is a paper machine with a trimmed width of 205 cm, and since 1973, also a carton board machine with a trimmed width of 360 cm. Both machines use exclusive recycled paper as raw material and the water loops are completely closed. Parallel to paper manufacturing, the company division FlexPack produces flexible packaging with two co-extruders, one extruder and over that different print and coating machines. There are 460 employees producing about 146,000 tonnes of paper and cardboard every year, as well as about 400 million square meters of flexible packaging. The products range from machine gloss, calendered, coated paper, envelope paper, register carton, up to specialty papers. At the cardboard machine, grey and natron carton as well as duplex-and triplex carton is produced. The latest investments were a shoe press and a modified wire section for the cardboard machine, as well as a new headbox for the paper machine.

The objective of Fogra Forschungsgesellschaft Druck e.V. (Fogra Graphic Technology Research Association) is to promote print engineering and its future-oriented technologies in the fields of research and development, and to enable the printing industry to utilize the results of this activity. To this end the association maintains its own institute, with about 50 staff members including engineers, chemists and physicists.
The estimated budget for 2007 is approximately € 5,5 million. About 20 % of this is made up of membership fees.
Fogra has about 800 members. About two third of them are graphic art businesses operating in fields ranging from prepress through to bookbinding, while the remaining third are suppliers. A third of the members are based outside Germany.

The Munich University of Applied Sciences, one of the biggest paper and packaging faculties in central Europe, has been educating paper engineers for over 60 years. Since 2007, the faculty of paper technology offers a bachelor degree in 7 semesters. Since 2004, it is possible to continue after the bachelor with the „Master of Engineering (MEng) in Paper Technology“ which takes 1-2 years. All lectures in the master's programme are held only in English, which makes this study course particularly interesting for international students.
