Sikora has launched its new website
that places special emphasis on a
unique corporate design and brand
recognition. The new website takes up
an innovative and dynamic design to
convey a company strategy of future
orientation.
“Our new website design offers
specific issues, adapted to customer
demands and diverse interests. From
corporate information to product news
and topics such as environment and
corporate social responsibility, visitors
can quickly enter the fascinating world
of Sikora and gain an interactive
experience on the potential of our
company,” said Harry Prunk, chairman.
The website provides continually
updated information and news about
upcoming events to keep visitors
informed on time.
“The rotating globe and dynamic cable
lines correspond to our corporate
philosophy: We are manufacturing our
high-quality products in Bremen and
guarantee, with the support of several
offices and representatives worldwide,
individual sales and services on site.
We are constantly advancing on
developing new technologies to
enthuse our customers and to be
always one decisive step ahead in the
world markets,” Mr Prunk added.
Apart from the design and content of
the website, the functionality for the
user has been improved. With the new
website visitors receive a stronger
multimedia brand experience, and
can quickly and easily learn about
products and company news.
Additional features such as product
videos, interviews, a newsletter or the
Return on Investment Calculator (ROI)
round off the digital channel of
information.
