Stahl CEO calls on tanners to embrace new technology
25/09/2015
“We want automotive companies and luxury brands to find out about what we are doing he said and that’s what we hope to achieve with this new centre of excellence,” he said.
Mr van Beijeren said tanners will be able to benefit from visiting the centre too, but he said he sometimes has the impression tanners are reticent about taking on new technologies. “What they’ve always done for their automotive customers works,” he said, “so why change? They fear that if they change, the new technology may not work as well as the old.”
