“Here, the selection of our primary material suppliers plays an important role. Not only good primary material quality and punctual delivery are of extreme importance to us as a ‘job shopper’, but also personal contact with our partners is of great importance to us,” said Managing Director Christoph Langen during our last visit to Cologne in May 2019.
“We are very pleased about the good collaboration with Mäkelä Alu Oy and continue to look forward to good cooperation in the future.”
