By appointing a local Managing Director for Austria, Arburg is making a deliberate choice to strengthen its presence in a market which is of importance to the company.
Superb skill set and training

Over recent months, he has completed an intense period of training ready for his role as Managing Director. He has split his time between Arburg's German headquarters in Lossburg and the Austrian subsidiary in Inzersdorf.
ATC Inzersdorf: right at the heart of the action
Arburg has had its subsidiary in Austria since 2010 and has been systematically developing and expanding its activities in the country ever since in keeping with its "Wir sind da." brand promise to always be there for its customers. In recent years, the customer base in Austria has grown steadily and the entire Arburg portfolio is in high demand across all industries, including automation solutions, individual turnkey systems and offers related to digitalization.
One particular milestone in the development of the Arburg market was the opening of the ATC in Inzersdorf back in March 2018. The choice of location could not have been better: situated in the Upper Austrian region of Kremstal, the ATC is right in the heart of the "Plastic Valley" where a significant number of Austrian plastics processors, institutions and other major industry players are based.
Covering an area of around 300 square metres, the ATC provides plenty of space for machinery, spare parts, testing and training. In addition, the Arburg Austria team of sales advisers, application engineers and service technicians is on hand to offer swift, expert assistance at local level.
