''You never know what you will encounter''

“In my role, I need to have very broad knowledge. An error can be electrical or mechanical and I have the responsibility to solve this. It is never the same error nor solution. Working together is essential within the factory. Together we make sure the processes keep running. Hereby safety is always most important.” – Carlo, Maintenance Engineer.
