Our relation is already based on mutual listening, which is the best basis. Via the Value Partner Program we are further intensifying our cooperation in order to even better fulfil the customer demands.”

Even more than we already do today. Joining forces will give us the opportunity to boost the protective equipment market with even better solutions.” (GK)
