Upon closing hour of the Productronica 2017 we were a litle bit dazzled ourselves. This show has been the most successful measured by the immediate success and amount of purchase orders we have been receiving. Therefore we first of all would like to thank all our customers for giving their votes of confidence to us. We fully understand that investing in capital equipment is driven by technological developments but we also like to believe it is still driven by people who make the difference. We are truly proud of the comments and compliments that we have been receiving by so many.
It is only a further motivation to keep our focus on improvement and further development for us.
The show started for us on a somewhat nervous note as we have been seriously let down by our transport company who delivered the machines to Hannover instead of Munich even though we ordered a direct transport from Breda to Munich. This news platform is not appropriate to explain the total failure and collapse of communication of such a worldwide transporting company. Instead, we want to give a BIG THANK YOU to the local staff of the Munich Exhibition Centre and the Exhibition Security Services. When the machines finally arrived long after opening of the show, many of the local staff went the extra mile or two. A special thank you to the "Hallenmeister in Hall B3" who showed that also at a big event like this it is still people that can make the difference.
