Interview with our colleague Johannes Sieger, Environmental Manager at Quarzwerke.
A few weeks after Ceramitec 2026, we now have the opportunity to reflect on the trade show and its impact with some perspective.
The event once again highlighted the importance of direct, face-to-face interaction in the ceramics industry and related fields. Especially in an environment characterized by technical requirements and customized solutions, in-person dialogue remains a key factor for successful collaboration and sustainable partnerships.

Berlin, Berlin – we were in Berlin! From June 16 to 18, 2025, our trainees took part in the final round of the nationwide IHK “Energy Scouts” competition in the capital as finalists.
Joining a new company is often an exciting yet challenging time. As a long-established family business, we make this transition easier for new employees by holding a special information day.
