Our first visit to the RETTmobil 2025 trade fair in Fulda really surprised us! ​ We learnt a lot about current, but also deeply touching developments and topics in the rescue sector. At the same time, we recognised potential in the area of digitalisation. The highlight of our visit was definitely the opportunity to visit our customer DRK-Service GmbH in person at their impressive stand. ​ Together with the team around Tobias Martin, Saskia Dewerner, Jan Fassbender, Alice Hubert and Anita Drost, we have provided real added value for the employees of the many rescue services of the German Red Cross with the launch of the new Red Cross Shop! ​ A project that we support wholeheartedly and with full conviction - for an organisation that saves lives every day. It fills us with pride to be able to make a small contribution. ​ Thanks to the great team at the DRK - we look forward to everything that's to come! 🚑 ​ Curious?

EUROBIKE Show 2024 shows the next big steps in the bicycle industry! ​ On Thursday we had the pleasure of visiting the Eurobike Show 2024 in Frankfurt. The show was an impressive showcase for the future of e-mobility and the digitalisation of the bike industry. ​ The variety of manufacturers and product groups was really impressive. ​ We found it particularly remarkable how important digital portals have become and how, for example, our composable commerce applications with Shopware are becoming increasingly important. ​ A real highlight was the innovative range control from Bosch and the digital bike management from VELO DE VILLE. These technologies show how the bicycle industry is moving towards greater efficiency and user-friendliness. ​ The bike industry is in the midst of digitalisation - we are excited to see what the future holds and look forward to being a part of this exciting development!

A review of our visit to THE TIRE COLOGNE 2024. The first day of the trade fair was really great and offered us many inspiring discussions and exciting insights into the future of the tyre industry. ​ A special highlight was the visit of our customers, including Falken Tyre Europe GmbH represented by Bettina Feldmann. ​ Our meeting with Chedhly Guermezi from Detection X GmbH, who have developed an innovative app that makes it very easy to recognise tyres, was exciting from a technical point of view: Mobile phone out, upload and the app immediately recognises the taxonomies of the tyre. ​ Find out more about our visit to TIRE COLOGNE:

This week, Sebastian Schirmer and Felix von Strachwitz were at the R+T, the World's Leading conferences for Roller Shutters, Doors and Sun Protection (R+T Alliance) and immersed themselves in a sea of innovations. ​ Our personal highlight: BOTEVO, a software and hardware solution for the centralised monitoring of various roller shutter types and brands. BOTEVO also received the R + T Innovation Award 2024 for this. ​ In line with our industry insights from the home textiles conference, similar topics were once again at the "digital centre" of our numerous discussions: ​

• 3D product configuration with AR functions
• Supporting functions for specialist retailers
• Digitalisation as a growth driver

​ The conference was not only a showcase for new technologies, but also a chance to see familiar faces like Michael Käding from Anova. We are looking forward to the future partnerships and projects that will result from this outstanding conference. See you at R+T 2027 in Stuttgart!
