Since long time WOMA has an inquiry from Pavel Peterlin (left side of picture): he was searching for a tufting machine with large stroke for production of street brooms. Until now the Slowenian was using manual filling machines made by Seidel. First WOMA could help him with another Seidel machine, but from time to time Mr. Peterlin calls again to ask for an automatic machine... Then the recommendation of a new machine manufacturer was our assistance.
In cooperation with decof we could clear all technical requirements of the Slowenian client. Also about the price both sides agreed shortly. Now decof produced a store of their 1 metre brooms to bridge the time until delivery of the new machine. In the meantime Mr. Peterlin attended to fund his investment. In May he was glad to come to Belgium for getting detailed instruction from David Decoopman and his technician Christophe (left side of picture). They even provide the programmes for Mr. Peterlin and installed the needed filling tools.
Always present: Daniel Köhler of WOMA. During his visit he also took some pictures and technical data of the second Schlesinger BFK2. When the first one was on the way to Slowenia, the next client just asked for the second one. In the meantime also this machine has been packed into wooded crate and delivered to Russian's biggest factory for shoe brushes.

WOMA's first participation
For the first time WOMA was exhibitor at Interbrush fair from 9th to 11th May 2012 in Freiburg.
This most important international fair for the brush industry takes place only every four years. Beside company owner Daniel Koehler also his wife and sales manager Maria Koehler have been there. Mr. Dmitry Volkov was taking care for customers from the Russian speaking countries.
At the booth we met represantatives of about 150 companies from all over the world. Mainly brush manufacturers interested in buying or selling second hand machinery. Also a lot of existing customers have taken the chance for public relations or talking with us about future projects.
This caused a high frequency at the just twelf squaremeter booth from the first to the last day. Some visitors tried several times to talk to us finally. At this point we would like to thank all the visitors at our booth, especially those who even "stood in line" for that!
Many visitors have used the chance to take a look into our workshop through the large flatscreen on the wall. About 20 projects from the last four years where presented. Thereunder a lot of complete overhaulings, which impressed our visitors.
A special highligt was the introduction of the new online marketplace, which Daniel Köhler set up at our client's suggestion. At www.woma-market.com brush manufacturers can sell their surplus of stock from now. The idea found much feedback even because of the high raw material prices. Some visitor already signalized at the booth to use the platform soon for offering bristles, filaments or wooden items they don't need any more and just use too much space. Your offers are welcome !
By taking part on the Interbrush 2012 the company WOMA has shown in its only 5th trading year, that it's already established in the brush industry. We have sent a signal to the fair visitors, that WOMA is an inherent part of the supplying industry for brush production. Thanks to the young, dynamic company management and the committed employees we succeed in getting part of a small but interesting and demanding sector. And this with chances of upgrowth and further success - as some Interbrush visitors prognostigated...
