A Strong Partner - Right by Your Side Those who only work to order and do not develop any individual initiative, who wait for things to come to them and do not think in terms of future prospects, will not get very far. In order to progress, to constantly improve and to be in a position to offer maximum quality, you need a real wealth of experience, innovative proprietary developments with the incentive to continually adapt products to current requirements and a great deal of flexibility, combined with perfect service. Thanks to this philosophy, as a family business in the third generation we have managed to successfully hold our own in the international market for instrumentation and automation technology since we were founded in 1925. And that is something that we are really proud of. We would like to extend a very warm welcome to the NORIS Group! Michael Schmidmer Florian Schmidmer 03
