Landa Digital Printing is a member of the Landa group. It has developed a unique digital technology called Nanography® for the commercial, packaging and publishing markets. Unveiled at drupa 2012, Nanography® bridges the critical profitability gap between offset and digital printing by enabling printers to cost-effectively produce short-to-medium run lengths. Landa Digital Printing offers a breakthrough method for the production of super-efficient light-absorbing nanopigments – Landa NanoInk® colorants. The Landa Nanographic Printing® process also differs from other printing processes in that the ink does not wet the paper as in inkjet printing. Landa Nanographic Printing® technology converts the ink image into a super-thin polymeric film which is then laminated onto the paper surface, avoiding typical inkjet issues of paper saturation and enabling the creation of high quality images at high speed – on any kind of paper, at the lowest cost-per-page of any digital printing process. Landa Digital Printing is a subsidiary of the Landa Group and is located in Rehovot in the center of Israel.

Evodos produces centrifugal force systems based on its patented Spiral Plate Technology (SPT). SPT allows solid materials to be separated and formed into stackable pie shapes or pastes. The solids can take any shape. In addition, they can have a coarse, soft or even lardy consistency. The high separation efficiency ensures low power requirements. Liquid/liquid separation requires no additional parameter settings. Evodos offers machines with flow volumes from 750 liters per hour up to 40m³ per hour. The company from Breda in the Netherlands positions its high-tech equipment in markets with high sustainability. Currently, Evodos serves the markets of algae dehydration and the purification of cold-rolling oils. The effectiveness is above the industry standard. Evodos machines have a compact design, noise levels as well as maintenance costs are low.

Nordex is a management holding company with its headquarters in Rostock. The domicile of the board and administration is Hamburg. Nordex SE's task is to control and coordinate the activities of the two 100 per cent subsidiaries Nordex Energy GmbH and Nordex Energy B.V. Under the brand name Nordex and Acciona Windpower they offer powerful wind turbines for nearly all geographical regions across the globe. With the serially-produced multi-megawatt wind turbines of Generation Gamma Nordex N90/2500, N100/2500 and N117/2400, Nordex is able to offer high-efficiency wind turbines for onshore use. Since 2013, Nordex offers the Delta Generation with the N100/3300, the N117/3000, and the N131/3000 for strong, medium and light wind sites. The turbines of the brand AW from Acciona Windpower have operated successfully in a variety of climates and markets across the globe. From initial designs in 1999 to a complete product line today, ranging from 1.5 MW to 3 MW with multiple rotor and tower combinations, they have a robust experience base reflected in growth of sales and product evolutions that are proven in the marketplace. As developers and manufacturers of wind turbines, they concentrate on their core competencies. In addition to the overall technical design, their know-how also lies in the development of rotor blades with a length of more than 64 metres and in the integrated electrical and control technology for wind turbines. These are the driving factors behind the development of more efficient and thus, more economical machines in order to reduce the cost of energy – which is to the advantage of the environment and of their customers.
