” We are investing heavily in the development of
digital products.
“Another area of development involves finding new applications so that we continuously meet our customers’ needs for sealing solutions. In many cases, this also means that we need to achieve certification for the product to be approved for a particular application. This work has led to our growing in several specific niches, including cruise ships, where superior comfort goes hand in hand with strict safety requirements. We are also now investing heavily in the development of “digital products”, that is, software solutions that generate added value for our customers”, says Mikael Helmerson.
