Successful seminar for the ground anchors licence in 2025
On Thursday 23 January 2025, the RÖDER Group, in collaboration with IGEL GmbH, held an exclusive seminar for the industry partners of tent rental companies at the RÖDER Zelt- und Veranstaltungsservice GmbH rental centre in Büdingen. Manuel Simon, managing director of IGEL GmbH, led the training together with RÖDER's technical director Stephan Oppenberg. The event was organised by Alex Christmann, who took over the logistical and content-related coordination.
The one-day seminar was designed to provide participants with practical knowledge about tent anchors and anchor systems. Topics covered included the safe use of anchors, how to carry out tensile tests and how to comply with safety standards. The event was continued the following day as an internal training session for the RÖDER Group.
The seminar strengthened expertise and safety in tent construction, improved cooperation with industry partners and ensured in-depth knowledge transfer.
‘The seminar was a complete success! The participants were enthusiastic about the practical content and the many ‘aha’ moments that they can integrate directly into their work. In particular, the combination of theory and practical exercises has received a consistently positive response,’ says Alex Christmann, Head of Industry at RÖDER.
With this initiative, the RÖDER Group is underlining its commitment to quality, safety and training in the industry.
