2021 was now the second financial year of the coronavirus pandemic. It is still a major challenge for us to maintain contact with our worldwide partners. The vast majority of trade shows and conferences were cancelled or postponed into the year 2022. Travel restrictions also meant that we were unable to visit customers. But especially for us, as technological market leaders in our sector, it is important to identify trends at an early stage and develop individual solutions in consultation with our customers. We made use of video conferencing as well as virtual and hybrid trade show concepts so, as to still be able to offer the best possible service.
In spite of the difficult operating conditions of the world economy, we nevertheless achieved a good result in 2021.The adoption in good time of measure to protect against coronavirus infection meant that we avoided any significant rates of staff absence. Only the flooding that occurred in July of last year resulted in damage to both the buildings and machinery. The building restoration work and other repairs are now largely completed.
