Fulfilment of NIB's mandate

Productivity:

The investment is expected to benefit the group’s R&D organization, adding value to their technology for industrial and commercial applications as well as to material science. The innovation process will also contribute to increasing human capital, and that might result in some knowledge spillover effects.

Munters has initiated a digital transformation project to increase productivity by improving business processes and facilitate the scalability of the operations. The improvements are likely to be passed on to other market participants, suppliers and customers, in the form of improved interaction, faster response time and more efficient use of resources.
