„At vombaur, we are given comprehensive support. We can always ask, if we want or need more information. And the industries we work for are really existing, aeronautical engineering, automotive, or the energy industry, for example. That’s what makes training with us so varied. Driving past a wind turbine and knowing that it contains textile components from vombaur, that’s something I think is really amazing every time.“
