“While other companies in our<br />

sector have been bought up<br />

or taken over, the Reichle family<br />

has succeeded in remaining<br />

independent. It fills us with joy<br />

to play a part in writing the<br />

company’s history and to make<br />

a contribution in the coming<br />

years as well.”<br />

Paulo Campos, Managing Director<br />

for Iberia and Latin America<br />

“Although our company is already <strong>50</strong> years old, we feel<br />

solutions for communication and mains current cabling to the workplace.<br />
