Thomas Böhringer
Project Lead Voith Group
»In a joint project, we were able to significantly improve the appearance of our paper machines, despite a very high product variance and the need for customer-specific solutions. A very large part of this result can be attributed to defortec, who supported us professionally with a systematic and detailed approach, creative ideas, a high degree of flexibility and a touch of tenacity.«
Achim Birkenmayer
Senior Product Marketing Manager RUDOLF Medical GmbH + Co. KG
»We implemented a project with Defortec in which the focus was on harmonizing several different appliance fronts. The task was implemented by the Defortec team in an extremely creative way and with a good view of the overall result. Communication with the people responsible was uncomplicated and solution-oriented at all times. The developed design fully meets our expectations and we are already looking forward to the next joint project.«
Stefan Beyersdorff
Vice President Design + Development ROTZLER HOLDING GmbH & Co. KG
»Our aim is to develop products that contain fundamental innovations with significantly higher customer benefits compared to the state of the art, i.e. that are genuine innovations. In two projects, defortec has already helped us to reduce complexity and the number of parts and to combine technical innovation with the best ergonomics. The clear and powerful design differentiates the products not only technically but also visually from the competition, which has been very well received by our customers. We received a FOCUS Open Award from the Design Center Baden-Württemberg for both products - a great appreciation of our partnership and constructive cooperation in the best sense of the word!«
Kai Schippmann
Senior Produktmanager Dieffenbacher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau GmbH
»The aim is to create a product family design with a high recognition value based on our values. defortec worked with us to put this claim into concrete terms and has since implemented it professionally, machine by machine, in close cooperation with our product developers and designers. defortec's broad experience with various materials has enabled a fresh product appearance and valuable additional benefits, to which our customers have responded very positively. We look forward to continuing our pleasant, fruitful collaboration with Stefan Grobe and his friendly team.«

Dr. Ing. Thorsten Thümen
Manager Process Engineering & Systems, Ferromatik Milacron GmbH
»Design plays an increasingly important role in all areas. The task for the new design was to support the image change of Ferromatik and to create a unique brand identity. A key element of our success lies in the good and friendly cooperation with defortec. The collaboration is simple, constructive and solution oriented. The "wow factor" at the first presentation of the new products was more than positive and as a bonus on top of it, we have been awarded with the iF Product Design Award 2014 and a nomination at the German Design Award 2015. What else can one expect?!«
Nathalie Albrecht
Marketing Manager centrotherm photovoltaics AG
»Within an extensive design-to-cost-campaign we in cooperation with defortec implemented a new design for our firing furnance for the solar cell production. The re-design of the c.FIRE provides a benefit of functionality to our clients and at the same time we were able to reduce the manufacturing costs. Furthermore the functional and modern design concept was extended to our new plants. We experienced defortec as a constantly competent, innovative and practically orientated partner.«
Ralf Dienel
Plant Manager Dürr Ecoclean GmbH
»Up to now product design has not played a significant role in industrial cleaning. With the development of the EcoCCore we therefore faced a completely new challenge. With a lot of dedication the defortec team has ideally supported the realization process. We especially appreciate the active, forward-looking and flexible work ethic of the whole team. From the very beginning our own ideas and suggestions as well as our requirements as far as functionality and costs were concerned were integrated in the design process. The result is a very sophisticated, attractive as well as marketable product.«
Winfried Benz
Managing Director Licon mt
»Task for the defortec team was to cooperate with our engineers to develop a powerful and dynamic exterior design for a new, extended machine type that matches our LiFLEX modular system and stands for highest performance and quality. And I have to say: The result is impressive and is a value for our customers. The "iF product design award" we currently received for the " LiFLEX II 444 " underlines this success.«
Dr. Eric Rüland
Managing Director GP Solar GmbH
»The cooperation with defortec has been extraordinarily successful. After a comprehensive analysis of the product, we could achieve a convincing re-design, which is better than the original development, regarding manufacturing, handling and design.«
Normann Kreuter
Managing Director German eForensics GmbH
»The team of defortec helped us to fullfill our high requirements in technical innovation and design.
It was particularly helpful, that they not only implemented, but also created own ideas. True to the motto of Rams‘sches „less is more“, the Clean Design helps our users to be open towards new technology. Design has become a clear product advantage for us.«
