On March 28, 2025, we had the pleasure of joining the European Spring Federation (ESF) Board Meeting, hosted in the picturesque town of Halblech, Germany.
The evening before, 15 representatives from 8 countries gathered at the König Ludwig Hotel. The atmosphere was amazing – we talked about challenges and opportunities in the European spring industry and exchanged ideas in a friendly and inspiring setting.
Our hosts, Mathias Bihler and Markus Schnöll, gave us a fantastic tour of Bihler's production facilities – it was a real highlight of the trip!
After a delicious Bavarian lunch, we took part in the official General Assembly, where we worked together on strengthening our collaboration and finalized plans for the 12th International Spring Industry Congress, which will take place on September 19, 2025, in Versailles.
And to top it off – we visited the legendary Neuschwanstein Castle on Saturday morning. A perfect ending!
🤝 We’re proud to be part of this European network and thank VDFI and the Bihler team for such a well-organized and inspiring event.
