Theleico, a manufacturer of grinding
wheels and abrasive products for
industrial use, with headquarters in
Meschede, South Westphalia, has been
granted the award ‘best supplier 2013’ by
the German Spring Federation (VDFi).
Out of a total of 193 suppliers the
Sauerland-based family-owned company
managed to secure first place in the
competition for the best supplier in the
category of ‘process materials.’ Theleico is
the only company having obtained this
award for the third time.
“We are proud of this award. It
demonstrates the consistently high
quality of our products and the
outstanding service,” said managing
director Frank Grans.
The award is only granted every three
years, since analysis and assessment are
carried out over this long period.
The jury assessed criteria such as rate of
complaints and handling of complaints,
meeting delivery deadlines and delivery
schedules, quality of service and technical
service.
Theleico manufactures high quality
precision grinding tools which are used
in many different areas of industrial
applications,
for
example
in
the
processing of springs, in gear and motor
construction, in processing of rolls, or in
rail and track construction.
The midmarket company puts the focus
on good service by giving technical
support and expert advice to its
customers.
The company is well equipped for the
future, having had continuous growth
in recent years. It has used this positive
development to invest heavily at its
headquarters.
Plant
and
machinery
have
been
continuously
modernised,
premises
expanded and extended and personnel
development actively encouraged.
During the last five years the company
has expanded production capacities at its
headquarters three times, and in the most
recent development, work has started in
one hall of around 1,100m
2
.
“Our growth ensures our future viability
at Meschede. We have a powerful and
motivated team here, our long-standing
and experienced staff ensure a high
process know-how.
“By using modern CNC-based systems they
create products which meet the highest
quality standards,“ added Mr Grans.
