RICO picks up award from baby-product manufacturer MAM
MAM produces soothers, bottles, cups, oral care and teething products, cutlery and breastfeeding products. RICO has a 25-year track record in mould manufacturing and injection moulding of high-quality single- and multi-component silicone parts. The collaboration between the two companies is no accident – use of silicone is becoming increasingly widespread in the baby-product sector. Although the partnership only dates back five years, the companies have completed a host of different projects.
Convincing arguments
In March 2020, MAM staged its inaugural awards ceremony for its suppliers, and RICO won the title of 2019 supplier of the year in the category for major suppliers of assembly parts for baby products.
Harald Schermann, Head of Technical Product Management and Strategic Technical Purchasing at MAM, said: “Outstanding technical expertise, professional handling, a proactive and solution-driven approach, and a strong culture of communication at all levels were the key reasons why RICO was named 2019 supplier of the year. All this and more has enabled RICO to become firmly established as an important strategic partner for MAM in just a short space of time.”
RICO Managing Director Markus Nuspl added: “It’s a great honour for us to be the first company to receive this award from MAM. I would like to thank RICO’s employees, because this prize is testimony to the tireless work they do day in and day out.”
Further projects are in the pipeline and MAM would like to intensify the partnership. “We also see this award as a driving force for continuously developing our partnership,” Schermann added.
