Expertise in demand

While on Euro­pean fac­tory floors it is normal for per­sonnel to feel safe when working on plant and machinery thanks to laws and stan­dards, in other places around the world there is still work to be done to con­vince people to carry out tech­nical safety mea­sures.

Delivery capability has top priority

Bot­tle­necks and long delivery times are placing a mas­sive burden on the global economy. In order to manage this dif­fi­cult sit­u­a­tion, Pilz founded a cross-depart­mental task force back in autumn 2020.
