Exciting Things coming up this Spring P2: Ben’s Column P3: News update

You will have seen our completely new website last year and we are continuing to improve it and add extra functionalities. For example, we recently launched a new tool to speed up product inquiries and quotation requests. Future possibilities include sub-sites focussed on specific markets and language options.Behind the scenes, we have also made some changes and you may have noticed the benefits already. We have completed the integration of a new ERP system that allows us to plan production and manage logistics better. Many distributors and customers have commented on our improved delivery times, and often the most popular products are available from stock.Another exciting introduction coming soon is our printed product catalogue. It’s been 12 years since the last edition and we believe that it is time once again to give a comprehensive overview of our full range of instruments. The catalogue includes part numbers, options and accessories, but it will not replace our product brochures. These provide more detailed descriptions and specifications and you can always visit our website to download brochures and other product information. I invite you to visit us at the upcoming General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) in Vienna, from 20th to 24th of April 2009, where we will showcase the CNR 4 on booth number 18
