UTECH Europe 2018: Hennecke upbeat

Maastricht, Netherlands – 'Hennecke was very successful at UTECH Europe 2018', said Patrick Bruninghaus, head of sales for metering machines at Hennecke.

He continued: 'Visitor numbers were particularly high. In addition to the quantitative aspects, I was particularly impressed by the quality of the discussions. Most of the trade fair visitors came to talk to us about specific projects that they are currently working on.

'This is the best trade fair in Europe which attracts the right companies and people. The location of the trade fair is excellent as it is easily accessible for everyone,' he added.

Miodrag Konstantinovic, head of sales  for slabstock also expressed his enthusiasm for the event. 'Most of the slabstock world was there. Intensive, technical discussions were held. The trade fair is one of the best platforms for speaking to customers and partners.'

Hennecke's presence focused on high-quality insulation for hot water storage tanks. The PU specialist demonstrated its highly efficient foaming process which provides perfect insulation for hot water tanks without thermal bridges.

The air conditioning company Daikin Europe which is based in Ostend, Belgium uses Hennecke's horizontal carriage mould carriers to produce hot water storage tanks in its Altherma range. The mould carriers have a vertically adjustable lower mould. This enables Daikin to make all of its product types with one mould carrier.

Hennecke also presented a technical paper at the conference. This was about its Colourline with Multi-Connect technology. It explained how its Colourline machine enables quick colour changes in the surface finishing process of decorative and functional elements.
