Trützschler worldwide: Trützschler in Curitiba, Brazil

Rene Werner, CEO of Trützschler Brazil, talks about the benefits for Trützschler to be present locally in Brazil and the development of Curitiba.
“When I first came to Curitiba in 1982, there were 1.3 million residents.
Meanwhile, the population has grown to two million. In my opinion, Curitiba is one of the most beautiful and livable cities in Brazil.
Even though it is an industrial city, there are a lot of green areas and parks. We are only 100 km from the coast and the port. This is also important for the company.
Our customers appreciate the fact that we manufacture locally and have a physical presence here. This allows us to always respond very quickly to customer requests.
Marco Zanon about the customer service:
"I believe, which is very remarkable in our job and it´s call attention of our customers, is the speed that we can do our job here. Usually we can do some repairing in 24 hours after the quotation price is approved and also the quality of our service. That has been enhanced all over the time.
We are always up to date with the German content and the German expertise. That is always our goal when we are doing our job here in Brazil. This is one of the main factors, that I think, is very approved by our customers and is very solid concerning our service in Brazil."
Rene Werner and José Mário Gomes Riebeiro, CEO of Döhler, on Trützschler's relationship with its customers:
“The Döhler company was the first customer to visit us here in Curitiba. At that time, visitors had to walk through the mud because the outside areas were not even paved. Döhler, just like Trützschler, is a family business and we have a very good relationship with the owners.”
“We have been a Trützschler customer since 1982 and have now built a new spinning mill, again with Trützschler machines. Our relationship is very good. Not only as business partners, but also as friends.”
“In Brazil, Trützschler offers the very latest products from Germany, local service with Trützschler technicians, a large spare parts warehouse, as well as the possibility of local financing, where the customer does not take any exchange rate risk.
This combination has always proven itself in recent years.
