Stan Renals, Managing Director CEO Cobar Division, Cobar/Balver Zinn
This recession has been difficult for many sectors, but the Balver Zinn Group has adapted and still managed to introduce new environmentally friendly products.
The current climate has forced companies to look at lower cost alternatives, and SN100C is one of the most popular alloy alternatives, lowering the cost to customers without sacrificing quality.
In 2010, after listening to customer requirements and wishes, Balver Zinn will release new products under the Cobar trade name to lower cost of production and reduce the effect of damage to the environment.
With a push on low-VOC and VOC-fluxes with the release of the 95 DRX and 396 DRX together with our new Aquasol water soluble-solder paste and a soon to be released no-clean formulation, the Balver Zinn Group wants to be seen as leaders in innovation in 2010 and beyond.

These included improving lines of communication with customers and channel responsiveness. Experience shows that agility is essential in an upturn. Manufacturers tend to ramp up faster than they scaled down, and they typically want even greater value. Which is why we also took the initiative to invest in our core printer platforms ...

March 4, 2010 Scott Wischoffer, Marketing Manager, Fuji America Corporation The first few months of the New Year will be slower than we'd like but much better than it has been. Consumer confidence in the economy is still very negative and the high unemployment rate has most everyone afraid to spend money keeping any manufacturing expansion to the minimum. Machine sales will increase but production capacity will not. New capital equipment purchases will be mainly niche markets, equipment ...
