I appreciate the KIMW because of the high practical relevance of the content. As a manufacturing, medium-sized company, we need concretely effective information and training to increase our productivity, not outlooks on theoretically possible technologies from Silicon Valley.
With more than 30 years of practical experience and know-how in the plastics industry, we see ourselves as an ideal partner in the field of contract research. The goal-oriented and above all practice-oriented execution of R&D projects for profitable solutions and implementations. From the idea to practical implementation is our claim.
At the beginning of each year, we publish a report on the funding projects, own research projects and the various activities in the field of networking and public relations.
