"Companies are selected as premium partners if they tackle problems and issues together with us and solve them with an innovative approach. Together with Gebrüder Schmid GmbH, we have succeeded in sustainably consolidating further training and raising the expertise of our employees to a new level. Ultimately, together we are taking the plastics industry a decisive step forward," reports Matthias Ruff, Sales Manager Education & Research at SKZ in Würzburg.
A collaboration that offers added value for all sides
Gebrüder Schmid is a market-leading technology provider with extensive expertise in high-tech manufacturing processes. For many years, employees have been trained at the SKZ in Horb am Neckar in the field of welding (DVS 2281) and bonding of plastics (DVS 2291).
"As a company, we are delighted to receive this fantastic award as a premium partner. As we at the SCHMID Group manufacture all the containers for our machines ourselves and therefore cover a broad spectrum of plastics processing, regular plastic bonding and plastic welding training is essential for our employees in production, assembly and service. We attach great importance to professional and high-quality knowledge transfer, particularly in the area of personnel development. Sound and continuous further training is essential in order to meet increasing customer requirements. SKZ has been meeting all our requirements for successful employee training in this area for years and we are very much looking forward to continuing this positive and harmonious business relationship," says Manuel Meintel, HR Consultant at Gebrüder Schmid.
In technologically highly demanding fields and production processes, qualified employees are an essential prerequisite for economic success in global competition. “We are very proud to be able to continue to support a global player like Gebrüder Schmid GmbH in the qualification of its employees in the future and look forward to further cooperation,” says Jürgen Kern, Site Manager Horb am Neckar at SKZ.
