"The shared experiences of last season, in particular achieving the double, have created a strong link between the two partners that we want to continue to look after," said the two Alexanderwerk managing directors Bekim Bunjaku and Manfred Felder.
As part of the new sponsorship contract, Alexanderwerk will have a comprehensive presence in the area of ‘Stadium vision’ that includes presentation on the screens in the VIP areas at the BayArena during Werkself Bundesliga matches. Other elements of the contract are an executive box in the south stand at the BayArena plus networking tours for European games for the double winners. The contract will run to 30 June 2025.

About Alexanderwerk AG:
Alexanderwerk AG is a world leading consortium in the field of dry compaction and granulation. As an international company based in Remscheid, Alexanderwerk has offered for over the 130 years high quality and technically demanding machines and solutions for the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries as well as in life science.
The first move away from exclusive production of machines for the food industry to the chemical and pharmaceutical industry came in 1953/54 when Alexanderwerk developed wet granulation machines for industrial use and delivered the first machines to the Bayerwerk in Leverkusen. Shortly after that, more efficient machines were developed and also delivered to the Bayerwerk for the production of acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin®).
From major corporations through to special suppliers or compaction: The solutions from Alexanderwerk are equally applicable to the production of tablets, capsules, life science products, flavourings, instant powders, sweeteners and much more.

Bayer 04 put in a brilliant performance to beat RB Leipzig 4-1 on Bundesliga matchday 32 and are now fourth in a Champions League spot. The Black and Reds took control of the game right from the start and, with 75 per cent possession at one stage, took a 2-0 lead into the break through Patrik Schick (25’) and Nathan Tella (45+1’). The visitors initially tried to do more after the break, but the Werkself remained determined and Schick scored his second goal to increase the lead to 3-0 (76'). The Red Bulls pulled a goal back through Christoph Baumgartner (80'), but the disciplined Leverkusen side were not rattled - and certainly not Schick: The Czechia international crowned a brilliant display with his third goal shortly before the final whistle to make the final score 4-1.

In the previous game against RB Leipzig in December last year, the Werkself turned came from behind to win 3-1 and further improved Leverkusen's already strong record against the Red Bulls. Montrell Culbreath stood out with his first goal on his debut for the Black and Reds. While the 18-year-old would certainly like to score a second goal against Leipzig on Saturday night, the attack-minded visitors come to the BayArena in confident mood after five Bundesliga victories in a row. The Nordkurve12 supporters group knows the Werkself will therefore once again be reliant on the vociferous support of the fans, and has once again called for the ‘Finally Red’ campaign in the run-in. Today’s matchday news.
