Speed Things Up with High-Speed proALPHA Business Cloud

At first glance, industrial plants, wind farms and luxury cruise liners don't have much in common, except perhaps that they are all colossal projects and that, in an emergency, fire fighters can't just put out the fire with a turntable ladder. If a wind turbine's nacelle catches fire at a height of 100 meters, the fire needs to be detected and fought automatically. This is why supervision and security of these plants should be in the hands of specialists like North German EMDION GmbH. As a system integrator, it plans, engineers, produces and installs tailor-made safety, communication and information systems for use in industry, by offshore wind farms and cruise shipping. This includes access control systems, gas detectors, smoke detectors, gas extinguishers and foam extinguishers. The company based in Emden also maintains these systems on a regular basis. 

The 24 employees at EMDION have many years of experience in the business. Before the company was founded in January 2017, they all worked for the Wärtsilä group. When the group decided to discontinue business in Germany, the employees did not hesitate and simply took over the business, including all on-going projects. This was a huge challenge for Wilfried van Schwartzenberg, co-CEO Friedrich Baur and their colleagues. They had to organize their company's operative structure within almost no time, because they were busy with customer projects right from the very beginning.
