More than anything else, the challenges faced by the manufacturing industry are political in nature. If we imagine that manufacturing is dirty, dangerous and outdated, we discard the very foundation of our prosperity. A country with very limited natural resources cannot survive alone by providing services.   <\/em>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;0&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;163884&#8243;]<strong>Schall:<\/strong> In your opinion, what do industrial manufacturing companies need in order to remain economically viable and sustainable in future markets?<br \/>\n<em><strong>M\u00e4urer:<\/strong> Sustainability is all about flexibility and streamlining.
