If you’ve been in the business as long as we have – and we’ve been in the business of providing customers in industry and in the commercial sector, as well as hundreds of thousands of private customers, with machines, measuring equipment, IR cameras and bespoke solutions in the field of dehumidification, ventilation, heating and climate control for the best part of 20 years now – you will have also had your fair share of positive and negative experiences, promises that were kept and promises that were broken, and assurances and guarantees that either turned out to be worth little more than the paper they were printed on or nothing more but a lot of hot air.
