(PresseBox) - Seeking customer proximity, determining individual needs, developing customized materials solutions are among the key competencies of thyssenkrupp Schulte.

"With the use of the PLADUR strip that already possesses a defined surface coating we have been able to optimize for Siemens the time-consuming and costly process and achieve our objective of stamping the end product directly from the coated metal," adds Mulot.
