Inside Fogra
STORIES
Five days, five departments. Student trainee Zoe was allowed to get a taste of a different department every day. She learned and experienced a lot. She was allowed to test nonwovens, sort papers according to the proportion of optical brighteners and was able to take a look at the printing machine.
Our Institute
STORIES
Research, testing and certification are activities that require custom-designed working areas with the latest in laboratory equipment. The interior layout plays an essential role alongside the technical facilities per se. The working environment must allow our staff to develop ideas and interact in an interdisciplinary manner. We have created the ideal setting to achieve this.
