For several years now, the world has been undergoing a geopolitical upheaval that would have been unthinkable just a few years ago. Global rules that were previously considered unshakable have been broken in one way or another by various actors on the world stage.

For 70 years now, Werner Schmid has relied on its in-house toolmaking department – not only to manufacture forming tools and precision molds that meet specific requirements, but also to provide ongoing maintenance and rapid repairs in the event of wear and damage.
