Today I'm taking you on a little journey through time in our blog. I recently watched one of our old YouTube films showing the processing of tear plates at rotec. It was amusing to watch this movie, which I had made myself a decade ago - with a dramatically exaggerated soundtrack that I'm sure no one would choose today. At the time, my YouTube video creation skills were still in their infancy, making this movie one of my first projects in this area.

It is particularly remarkable that the employees featured in this film are still part of our rotec team today. This is testament to the consistency and comprehensive expertise that our company has built up in the field of sheet metal processing. The fact that a film on such a specialized topic has almost 29,000 views shows the great interest and relevance of our work.

Over the last ten years, technology in sheet metal processing has developed dramatically. Where tear-drop and corrugated sheets used to be cut with scissors, state-of-the-art laser systems are now used. With these precision machines, we can process sheet metal up to a material thickness of 20 mm and create complex cut-outs in round and oval shapes. This technological revolution has not only improved the quality of our products, but has also significantly increased the efficiency and flexibility of our production.

Another highlight in rotec's development is our certification as a specialist welding company. We meet the highest standards, including DIN EN ISO 9001:2015, DIN EN 1090-1/2, EXC 1+2 and DIN EN ISO 3834-3. These certifications are proof of our commitment to quality and safety. They also mean that we are one of the few companies in Germany that manufactures and sells CE-certified treads made of tear plate. These steps are used in many areas, from industrial plants to public buildings.

However, the development of rotec is not just a story of technological progress and certifications. It is also a story of people. The long-standing loyalty and continuous commitment of our employees are the key to our success. Their expertise and knowledge are indispensable in order to guarantee the high quality standards that our customers expect from us.

Another exciting aspect of our work is the wide range of possible applications for teardrop and checker plates. These sheets are not only robust and durable, but also aesthetically pleasing. They are used in many areas, including construction, industry and design. Whether as non-slip steps in stairwells, as a hard-wearing floor in workshops or as a decorative element in modern architecture - the possible applications are virtually unlimited.

When we look back on the past 35 years, during which rotec has developed into a leading company in sheet metal processing, we also look to the future with confidence. We are proud of what we have achieved and look forward to continuing on our path. Innovation and quality will continue to be our guiding principles as we take on new challenges and inspire our customers with first-class products and services.
