The year is drawing to a close and that’s another reason for us to speed things up: additional to our 180 new products in 2021, some other innovative ones have been added. From more than 210 high-end chainflex® cables with UL to contactless monitoring of cables with smart plastics: on the web or during a personal tour, you can get an overview of our freshly redesigned virtual-real trade show stand.

With smart plastics technology from igus®, it is now very easy to remotely monitor parts that are relevant for the life of a machine, such as energy supply systems, cables, hoses or bearings.

Easter is behind us, Spring is in the air, light evenings, restrictions are thankfully being slowly lifted, and time continues to fly by! They say that wisdom comes with age, I am not sure about that, but certainly time does give experience. Often we hear it said, if only I knew then what I know now!

Between the news of the US inauguration, vaccines, lockdown parties, snow and flooding, you may have seen reports on delays in shipments from Europe to the UK.
