About 100 participants attended technical presentations, lab tours, and live demonstrations on testing, monitoring, and certification

The international nature of the event was also reflected in its organization: All presentations and program items were offered in both German and English. Thanks to professional simultaneous interpreters, participants were able to follow the technical presentations, live demonstrations, and discussions without any difficulty. This fostered an intensive exchange of knowledge and experience across national and linguistic boundaries.

Technical presentations, lab tours, and live demonstrations
With a varied program featuring technical presentations, exclusive lab tours, and hands-on live demonstrations, the Customer Day offered far more than just traditional knowledge transfer. Guests gained insights into specialized testing procedures, explored the SKZ’s testing and research laboratories, and took the opportunity to engage directly with the experts on site.

This allowed guests to experience the full range of SKZ’s services firsthand. The live demonstrations, in particular, generated great interest and illustrated how scientific expertise and practical solutions are combined.

“Our goal is not only to impart knowledge, but also to foster connections. Personal interaction with our customers and partners is of inestimable value to us. The fact that we were able to welcome guests from so many different countries to Würzburg demonstrates the high regard in which our work is held and underscores the SKZ’s international significance as an independent partner for testing, inspection, and certification,” says Dr. Thomas Hochrein, Managing Director of Testing at the SKZ.

Personal Dialogue and New Collaborations
In addition to the technical content, the focus was above all on personal dialogue. In numerous discussions, experiences were shared, challenges were addressed, and new approaches for future collaborations were developed. The joint evening event provided the perfect setting for this and fostered networking among the participants.

A Platform for the International Plastics Industry
The SKZ Customer Day once again demonstrated the importance of personal exchange for the plastics industry. Technical presentations, hands-on demonstrations, and direct discussions offered participants a wide range of opportunities to discuss current challenges and potential solutions, as well as to establish new contacts.

The two-day event in Würzburg concluded with numerous technical insights and new networking opportunities. The high level of international participation underscored the SKZ’s role as an independent partner for testing, inspection, and certification in the plastics industry.
