News & Press
A strong statement for sustainability! Our first exclusive customer event was a complete success. Exciting presentations and interesting discussions with our customers and partners were about one central theme: “Sustainability meets efficiency”. Many thanks to our fantastic speakers, guests, and of course to Mr. Michael Antwerpes for his excellent moderation throughout the day. We hope you had an inspiring day full of ideas and knowledge and look forward to welcoming you again at our upcoming events!
Fried takes responsibility – for its employees, the region, and society. A remarkable example of this commitment is Kevin Herbst: After completing his training as a process mechanic for plastics and rubber technology (now known as plastics and rubber technologist), he was hired in the injection molding department at Fried. However, Kevin is also dedicated beyond his job, volunteering as the head of the football department at TSV Rudersberg.
In an interview, Kevin provides fascinating insights into his experiences and challenges in this role and explains how Fried became a sponsor of TSV Rudersberg. We are proud to have such dedicated employees like Kevin on our team and are happy to support local initiatives.
