Mr Mezni said, ‘Our company has a reputation in the market for adhering closely to the specific needs of customers in the various geographical regions of the world. This approach is rapidly gaining significance in view of the fundamental changes taking place in the global industry, particularly digitalisation and the networking of production processes. In the packaging industry, product and process sustainability as well as the buzzword ‘zero defect production’ are additional trends of growing importance.
‘More than ever, our customers need know that Baumer is the right strategic partner for the long term, based on its expert staff, innovative solutions for industrial gluing and quality assurance, as well as its services. In this context, my aim is to effect a seamless transition and move forward with the same commitment as my predecessor, Jean-Marie Schmidt.’
