Last year, we took our “Technology on Tour” around the world with great success, drawing the attention of the international injection moulding industry to the subject of energy efficiency, shedding light on the various factors influencing energy consumption in injection moulding, and highlighting potential savings. Dear Readers, However, for us the efficient use of energy is a matter of priority not just for our products, but in our company as well. This year in Lossburg, you will be able to see for yourselves how our new building embodies the concept of energy efficiency. The new Customer Center will open its doors to coincide with our Technology Days, which will be held from 19 to 21 March 2009. Make the most of this opportunity to marvel at the possibilities that we have to offer. You may well be excited to see what innovations we will be presenting at the Techno- logy Days. So don’t let this opportunity slip away. Also new and improved are our Projects and Applica- tions Technology departments, likewise with the goal of providing you with even better advice and support in future. But our investments are not limited to Lossburg, as demonstrated by the opening of our sales and service office in the United Arab Emirates. So as you can see, we are certainly not burying our heads in the sand during these economically difficult times. Instead, we are looking towards the future and continuing to develop ourselves and our products, thereby sending out a clear signal that in ARBURG you have a strong, reliable partner with whom to jointly face a positive future. We hope you enjoy reading this new issue. today 40/2009 3 Juliane Hehl Managing Partner & Managing Director EDITORIAL
