SIPOS Staff Benefit From Sports Science

Online, September 6, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Dr. Simon von Stengel, a specialist in nutrition research at the University of Erlangen, visited the company and presented using a combination of descriptive theory with practical assessments.

Each employee that attended received detailed information on their body composition including their muscle mass and body fat. Using specialist test equipment, Dr von Stengel was able to provide participants with a 'Bio Impedance Analysis'.

The health day concluded with useful nutrition information presented in a humorous way that gave SIPOS staff 'food for thought'.

A previous track record as part of Siemens gives SIPOS Aktorik a history in the actuation industry that dates back over 100 years. In 1999, Siemens AG outsourced its electric actuator subdivision including employees, expertise, documentation and production facilities: since that date, SIPOS has operated worldwide as a successful, independent company.

SIPOS employs over 90 people and has a growing international network of Agents. The company has set itself apart from other suppliers that support valve control applications with a number of unique product features for its actuators, including soft start and stop capability. A strong reputation has been built for meeting the needs of both customised actuator applications and bespoke requirements.

In 2008, the company relocated to a new, 6,000 sq metre purpose-built facility in Altdorf, Germany. The facility houses sophisticated production and packing technology dedicated to global product distribution. The site also contains SIPOS' R&D facilities and central administration functions.

A strong focus on customer service is at the heart of the organisation's continued success. This philosophy has been at the centre of SIPOS' development and is key to its forward plan for expansion on the international actuation arena.
