The regular visits of our Japanese business partners in the swimming pool construction sector have a long-standing tradition. On Monday, October 21, 2024, a four-member delegation led by the President of Brain Inc., Akira Ito (4th from left), visited us. Together, we have realized projects in the swimming pool construction field, such as the competition pool built in Nagaoka, Japan, in 2008.

Communication was facilitated through an interpreter, who, after the welcoming, also translated the company presentation and the plant tour for our guests from Japan. Managing Directors Michael Dickopf and Olaf Mayer were able, for the first time, to show the partially returning guests the GIGA-Line® production facility, which has been in operation since 2017.
