Speaking at the official opening, Bürkert Contromatic SA managing director, Willem Buwer, elaborated on the reasons for the move. "Our new Edenvale premises are located close to a number of major freeways thus providing our clients with easy access to our facilities. Incredible as it may seem, these fantastic new premises were also custom-built for our needs and yet cost us less than our previous premises."
