The Digital Office is situated in K.D. Feddersen Holding GmbH and has three main topics within the Feddersen Group: The digitalisation of internal business processes, the provision of data for all employees (data democratisation) and the creation of digital solutions for our customers. In this way, we are driving the business transformation into the digital future.

We all feel that the world is spinning faster and faster. This becomes particularly clear when we consider the time intervals between industrial revolutions such as water and steam power around 1780, electricity around 1870, automation in the 1970s and today's digitalisation (starting around 2000). Resource scarcity, urbanisation, technological, climatic, demographic and social change are examples of the issues that will significantly influence our business life in the future. We have to face up to these tasks now!

The Feddersen Group is therefore also embarking on a search for new, innovative business models outside of the group structures with port F.

For ever new applications, the simulation of material- and energy-intensive processes with the digital twin offers considerable potential for conserving resources. Our engineering company M.TEC is working on this.

Virtual reality technology in maintenance and support enables our colleagues at FEDDEM to assist customers with questions and problems spontaneously and without long business trips. Thanks to image-based support, minor repairs or setting corrections can be carried out from a distance. This reduces expensive machine downtime to a minimum and our customers can get straight back to work.

We firmly believe that investment in sustainability always pays off. Here we list just a few sustainable products from the Feddersen Group:

• LFT Pultrusion Lines for smooth production of long fibre compounds

• Innovative and sustainable alternatives for conventional polyamides: AKROMID® NEXT Product series

• Biobased and/or biodegradable plastics from BIO-FED.
