Innovation course
SPN is well equipped for 2022
2020 and 2021 were characterized by uncertainty in planning, constant changes to measures and projects and fluctuating sales. SPN Schwaben Präzision was able to work out the targets for a realignment by 2028 despite this, or perhaps because of it.
"The new year is characterized by our SPN Vision 2028. We have not let ourselves be deterred and have intensively prepared and successfully launched our innovation course so that we can tackle the further planned steps this year," says Rainer Hertle, Technical Managing Director of SPN Schwaben Präzision.
Intralogistics is a focus for the 2022 financial year, which is why the company is planning to exhibit at the Logimat trade fair at the end of May for the first time. "The order books for 2022 are already well filled and we are pleased that our course of digitalization and reorientation towards future markets will bear fruit this year," says Hertle.
