After the celebration of the traditional meeting of suppliers of injectors, Interempresas-plastics universal wanted to know the opinion of the main Spanish suppliers about current issues of concern to the sector in our country.
Jorge Serrano, Guzmán polymers.
Reducing the consumption of machines is one of the trends that we hear about more. It is a simple fashion or really Spanish plastics transformer calculated rigorously its production costs including energy consumption?
It is a factor that is increasingly taken into account. From our experience and is also one of the strengths of our machinery, the interest for the knowledge of the saving of energy consumption by the customer is constantly increasing. It is a concept to assess in the decision-making process of the purchase of a machine. With the advance of technology and, in particular, fully electric drive machines, the differences vary from 50 to 70%, depending on the process. Therefore, we are talking about directly important cost savings, less spending and more efficient. It really is an immediate fact, visible from the first moment of use with a simple comparison.
We do not believe to be a fashion, is a natural and necessary trend which not only appears in our sector, but that is a general concept that occurs in all sectors of production and industrial. Nor it is isolated and only referred to our country, it is global, it is present in the rest of the world, our potential competitors.
Talk about the future is difficult. But, does he not dare describe the panorama of the Spanish plastics industry by 2015?
From our point of view there will be a selection of processors which will cause major changes in our industry in recent years. Since the demise of many of them, until the turn of philosophy and concept in many others. Along with this time of crisis, we must unite a fierce competition from other emerging markets. If the different companies in the sector are not competitive, the picture can be very negative. For this reason, it is very important to change and make decisions that will lead to that objective by saving consumption, machinery quality, automation and optimization of the production process. We believe that only so you can be that date with enough force to meet the challenges that the future holds for us.
Their main arguments of sale in 2010 put in first-line matters relating to costs or to the injection technique?
They will be the same arguments of sale than hitherto. Precisely, in our case, the cost optimization based on energy saving and high precision and quality of the process of injection with our electric machines, are two of the key points of our arguments of sale. These concepts are closely related and which use usually. This does more than confirm that our commitment to this concept of the machine has been correct to note that the evolution of the market is fully in line with the characteristics and values of our teams.
