Friday - the last day. Really great: so many interesting contacts and so much interest in our shapes and refinements. (Not that great: at times the interest went a little bit too far... This year we had the largest 'loss' of products ever! Wouldn't have been a problem if it was possible to take a more examples to a trade fair!)

We've been pleased to welcome a very International and pan-European audience. Our team was constantly at disposal to everyone interested. Hence it was already on thursday when we first realized that our voices became somewhat croaky. But don't worry: everything's going to be alright!

The winners:

• Snack2Go had a dazzling appearance as an addition to our 2Go-family. Our graphics department already started to work on first visualisations for our interested clients.
• A real looker, especially in PSI's Media Lounge, were our mugs with sparkly refinement.
• Velvety caused with its unexpected soft surface more than one light-bulb moment.
• And last but not least the excellent cappuccino and caffè-latte of our top level barista made everyone very happy!

And here they are, the first impressions of Mahlwerck's stand in hall 11:

The last preparations...

Sparkly, the latest refinement

A true brand ambassador, just available from Mahlwerck: the softpad mug.

Mack the Knife seems to be quite popular: already on the first day three ouf for four Macks vanished without a trace.

Early in the morning, when there are still no visitors: the PSI Lounge presented by Mahlwerck Porcelain.

The best barista of the whole PSI in the media lounge.

Hundreds of cappuccini and caffè-latte every day.

The halls are very well-attended throughout the day.

We hardly can make a break...

Hurray?! Another Coffee2Go knock-off! The first test reveales a lid, that A) doesn‘t come loose and B) doesn‘t close properly.
