Every summer it snows awards on SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental. This time the Austrian ski area made its mark in the European ski area test run by Snow-Online.de, one of the biggest Internet portals in the field of winter sports, and was classified as a “Top Ski Area”. TechnoAlpin takes great pleasure in its customer’s success and would like to offer sincere congratulations!

An outsider might think that the work of the Logistics Department at TechnoAlpin is basically very simple: customers place their orders and TechnoAlpin delivers the goods. But in fact the department is confronted every day with the challenge of mastering the countless aspects of a global logistics system, finding the optimum solution for every shipment while doing full justice to the requirements of TechnoAlpin and above all of our customers.

Folgaria Ski Resort (ITA) has been a regular TechnoAlpin customer since 2003, with a snowmaking system that has been improved and extended several times. This year will see a further increase in the number of snowguns on the mountain, with six T60-AT4.5s, two T60-AT3.5s and twenty-three M18-AT3.5s, all with central air supply, due to leave the Bolzano plant for the nearby Trentino shortly.

With the season's closure on 30 April, TechnoAlpin finished its accounts, including those relating to personnel increases. Compared to the previous year, the number of employees in the Bolzano central plant alone rose by almost 40%: a figure which represents more than half of the 200 plus employees in the 7 branches throughout the world.

Temperatures of -5°C at night and the first snowfalls are the ideal conditions to start up the new fully automatic snow-making system in Perisher, Australia. This definitely sets the way for a successful season inauguration on 6th June!
