Bürkert Contromatic has relocated its Johannesburg office to new premises.

Speaking at the official opening, Bürkert Contromatic SA managing director, Willem Buwer, elaborated on the reasons for the move.

Expressing his support and confidence in the South African operation, he had the following to say, "We are delighted with this upgrade to our South African operation.
