On 15 and 16 July 2026, we will open the doors of SKZ in Würzburg for our exclusive Customer Day – and you are cordially invited!
You can look forward to inspiring specialist presentations, intensive networking, and valuable insights into the world of testing, certification and inspection. Find out first-hand about the latest trends and developments shaping the plastics industry and talk directly to our SKZ experts.
A look behind the scenes:
Our exciting tours through the laboratories and the SKZ model factory will give you a live experience of how our testing technology is used in practice. Discover our wide range of equipment and see how we test materials and products.
Another highlight:
On the evening of July 15, 2026, an exclusive evening event awaits you in the historic buildings of a former brewery in Würzburg. End the day in a relaxed atmosphere, make new contacts, and enjoy an unforgettable evening.
And for all soccer fans: We will be cheering together at the public viewing of the 2026 World Cup – perfect entertainment and exciting conversations await you!
