To ensure these standard are met, we use Carmo’s components with confidence and are always very pleased with the cooperation from Carmo.”
Geographic proximity is important
As for many companies, the geographical proximity and location of Germa’s suppliers is important, for various reasons.
“It is of great importance that it is easy for us to get in touch with Carmo. They are always responsive and provide us with professional consulting on technical issues for our critical applications. Germa is also focusing on reducing it's CO2 footprint, and the short distance between Denmark and Sweden is a key element to keeping our CO2 emissions down. Finally, we need suppliers that we know are following REACH guidelines.”
