From 1902 to 1918 he was manager of the dry plate factory Dr. C. Schleußner in Frankfurt a. M. During the First World War he worked briefly in the war industry before becoming technical director of the Kranseder dry panel factory in Munich in 1920. From 1922 he worked as head of the photochemical laboratory at Deutsche Gelatinefabriken AG in Schweinfurt.
