Brand & Concepts

The requirements are constantly increasing. In many industries where plastics processors operate, the rules are made by the major manufacturers. The strong international competition in some sectors, such as the automotive industry, further exacerbates the entrepreneurial and economic situation.

Companies in the downstream supply chains, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, are experiencing this. Often these companies can only react and not act. The resulting strong dependence on a small number of customers accordingly determines growth, as it results solely from the requests of the highly concentrated customer environment.

We aim to support companies with all available instruments in their market development and the associated transformation process.

TIP: Service project
"Benchmarking & Market Analysis"

In many industries where plastic components are produced, the conditions of international competition are changing. The strong structural changes lead to uncertainties among the affected companies in the plastics industry, for example among plastics processors, mold makers as well as material suppliers. The goal must be to maintain and, if necessary, expand its competitiveness. In the future, this will require even more bundled information on the markets.

PROJECT FLYER

Cluster 2.0
At the pulse of the action

Cluster 2.0 unites new and improved offers around the Cluster Kunststoff- Institut Luedenscheid.

At the center of all considerations and efforts is the network and its actors. Based on this and against the background of the economic transformation processes, a new future-oriented range of services was developed. Specifically, the Environment and Sustainability unit was restructured, as was the Consulting and Research and development unit.

Accompanying our network of companies as they enter new industries is a new addition, as are thematic innovation networks, the expansion of digital training offerings, and support through new marketing tools such as the Industry Meeting 4.0.

Against the background of the enormous challenges facing the plastics industry, geographical proximity to the companies assumes great importance. For example, additional locations were established in Berlin and Villingen-Schwenningen, and additional training locations in Aichach and Darmstadt. With a stronger presence in the companies, individual support is guaranteed.

Cluster 2.0 unites new and improved offers around the Cluster Kunststoff- Institut Luedenscheid.
