… plant in Austria In a globalised industry, long-term investment decisions are reached after considering a number of different criteria. Protectionism or limiting the selection of regional suppliers for investment goods are often sidelined. The Austrian manufacturer of pre-assembled concrete components, Edwin Pimiskern, was never one for parochial thinking or excluding non-native business partners. Careful consideration of the costs and benefits has always underpinned his investment decisions and is the reason for his continuous, decade-spanning commercial success. This meant that, even before the decision was made to invest in a new plant for manufacturing concrete manhole rings, it was impossible to predict which manufacturer or machine manufacturer would win the tender. After careful consideration, the decision was ultimately made to invest in automated production with the Magic machine model by the system developer Schlüsselbauer.
