Concludes Kevin Gilbert:
“We can confidently say that our stand at MACH and the machines being showcased will pull in the crowds. Few if any other stands will be exhibiting such a broad range of technologies, and the fact that we’re also launching a number of new machines into the UK at the show is another reason why Mills’ stand (Hall 5 Stand 5430) will be many visitors’ first (if not their only) port of call.”
