Making existing things better, developing new things, shaping the future: Principles to which we at VOLLMER have remained true for well over 100 years. For us this includes the promo- tion and qualification of young talent in particular. In this edi- tion of our V Magazine we give you insights into our future workshop, in which 63 young individuals are currently learn- ing craftsmanship and innovation from scratch.
