(openPR) - The Mainz-based company ORGENTEC Diagnostika has extended its involvement with 1. FSV Mainz 05 and will continue to sponsor stands at the new Coface Arena in Mainz.

As they did in the Bruchweg Stadium, the globally active company, which specializes in laboratory tests, will keep the naming rights for the back straight in the new stadium built for FSV Mainz 05 for three years. In addition, ORGENTEC Diagnostika will have a strong presence in the Coface Arena, including two TV banners and two advertising boards directly behind the goals.

ORGENTEC has been involved with the German Bundesliga club 1. FSV Mainz 05 since 2006, both as a member of the business club and a co-sponsor. Since 2007, the manufacturer of diagnostic tests has had naming rights to the east stands of the Bruchweg Stadium.

“We are proud of our longstanding collaboration and are pleased to continue working side by side with the 05ers in the new stadium as well. As a global player with a presence in over 100 countries, it is nice to be engaged locally and to demonstrate to the region – and especially Mainz 05 and its fans – our clear commitment to Mainz, where we have our headquarters. In Mainz, for Mainz – this has always been our motto,” says Dr. Wigbert Berg, founder and CEO of ORGENTEC Diagnostika GmbH.

FSV Mainz 05 is also glad that ORGENTEC will remain loyal to the team as it moves to the new Coface Arena, where the company will continue to sponsor stands: “Mainz 05 and ORGENTEC just fit together. The company has always emphasized its proximity to Mainz and has taken its partnership with the 05ers seriously”, states Dag Heydecker, Marketing Director of Mainz 05.
