An interview with Anders Karlsson, president at EIFI

Fastener Talk

For this podcast we have an interview with Anders Karlsson, president of the European Industrial Fasteners Institute (known as EIFI). We chatted about a wide range of topics and challenges facing European fastener manufacturers, such as energy and raw material prices and the potential effects of secondary inflation; the unpredictable supply from Asia and how European fastener manufacturers can take advantage of this opportunity; as well as how the fastener industry needs to make itself greener, especially with the introduction of the CO2 tax and the push by end user customers for a sustainable supply chain.
