First international projects with Brunner do Brasil
The cooperation with our Brazilian subsidiary BRUNNER DO BRASIL is now gaining momentum.
The planned market entry unfortunately coincided with the beginning of the pandemic, and for this reason our activities in the first two years were fairly restrained.
However, we have since expanded our team as planned. We regularly receive enquiries from Brazil and other South American countries, and some major contracts have already been carried out in the region.
We used the initially quiet phase to further equip our toolmaking facility in Brazil, with our mould and tool developers in Brazil and Germany working in close cooperation.
For example, new articles are developed in Brazil together with the customer. The associated prototypes (individual samples) can be produced directly in Brazil from PET materials. At the customer's request, however, polycarbonate prototypes can also be supplied from Germany in thermopress and injection moulding processes. In other words, the customer has the choice.
For injection moulds the basic tools have been delivered to Brazil.
This means that moulds up to 650 mm in length can be produced there as planned using high-quality mould equipment.
Each enquiry from South America is analysed in terms of its technical and commercial aspects, after which the relevant process is determined or agreed with the customer.
We prefer to manufacture in Brazil in order to save on logistics and customs costs.
At the Fipan trade fair in Sao Paulo from 19 - 22 July 2022 there will be an opportunity to meet the team and discuss the advantages of supplying from Brazil in detail. In addition, our project managers here in Germany or in Brazil will be happy to deal with any enquiries.
