Fakuma is the world's leading event for industrial plastics processing. From October 17 to 21, 2017, more the 1700 exhibitors will be presenting their international offerings in Friedrichshafen. Greiner Assistec will be represented at the trade fair as well, and will be showcasing its broad technology portfolio.
More than 40,000 professional visitors from 120 countries are expected to turn up for Fakuma's 25th anniversary. The event will offer a comprehensive overview of the full range of plastics technologies. That makes this trade fair a unique platform for companies and their products and solutions, something which Greiner Assistec is well aware of. It intends to exploit the opportunity to inform existing and potential customers, partners, and interested trade fair visitors about its comprehensive technology offerings.
Four levels of complexity, decisive added value
Greiner Assistec places added value for the customer at the center of all of its interactions, and does so at four different levels of complexity. While on Level 1, Greiner Assistec takes on the customer’s existing high-performance tools, on Levels 2 and 3, the experts assume responsibility for procurement and optimization of tools for production – depending on the technical requirements. On level 4, Greiner Assistec also offers component optimization. This process is also precisely tuned to the customer's general requirements. The offerings range from solutions in the toys and smart environments sectors to solutions in the automotive, office, and trays & boxes sectors, all the way to projects in the areas of non-food-packaging and life sciences.
Focus: Silicon injection molding
Visitors will be paying particular attention at the trade fair to silicon injection molding - in recent years, Greiner Assistec has established itself as an expert in silicone products combined with thermoplastics. This has placed it among the turnkey solution providers on the market, those who can provide the customer with every product component from a single source. "We hope to use the trade fair as a chance to talk with the visitors. By expanding our business activities to include liquid silicone rubber, we are positioning ourselves as a complete supplier. That is what we want to show everyone. Our broad range of available technologies allows us to support our customer in every imaginable sector. Together with our proximity to our partners, our technical know-how is the primary precondition for being able to offer the highest level personalized and innovative solutions,” emphasizes Wolfgang Rotschopf, Sales Director for Assistec.
Embedded as it is in a strong corporate association, Greiner Assistec has access to the entire production network and full range of technologies of Greiner Packaging. This results in valuable synergies and broad geographical coverage in Central and Eastern Europe, as well as in the NAFTA region. In addition to the Engineering and Production sectors, Greiner Assistec accompanies its customers as they wish in all phases of the supply chain. Depending on what is required, it can take on partial or complete processes.
"We stand for top quality and innovative processes – and visitors will get a chance to see that for themselves at Fakuma. We hope to show that we are using technologies that play a critical role not just today, but in the future as well," says Wolfgang Rotschopf.
