Tense material supply

Global raw material shortages pose a challenge for BVS Purchasing
Plants operated by automakers such as BMW, Opel, and Mercedes are or have been shut down. The construction industry is complaining about extreme price increases for wood. According to a survey by the ifo Institute, 77.4% of industrial companies in Germany reported shortages in the procurement of intermediate products and raw materials in September.

New trainees 2021

Young talents begin their apprenticeships at BVS
A ‘warm welcome’ to our three new apprentices training as construction mechanics specialising in sheet metal technology. The young men have been working hard as part of our team since September and will be learning sheet metal working skills such as filing, sawing and drilling in the training workshop over the next few weeks. Over the next 3 to 3.5 years, they will spend time in various production areas, operating and programming our CNC punching and laser machines and press brakes, for example. Practical training on real customer projects is part of our programme, so we train our junior staff specifically to meet the requirements of our production operations.

If you would like to find out more about training as a construction mechanic (m/f/d) at BVS Blechtechnik, then take a look at our training page.

Send applications for the start of training in September 2022 to bewerbung@bvs-gruppe.de.
