01.12.2023 (sei) It has been clear since mid-November 2023: plastics manufacturer Deceuninck is closing its sites in Bogen and Hunderdorf. Around 230 employees are affected by the Belgian company’s decision. For nine trainees, however, the anxiety about their professional future has now come to an end – the sealing specialist Wallstabe & Schneider from Niederwinkling is giving them the opportunity to continue their training.
Since Friday, December 1 2023, eight young people have been continuing their training as process technologists for plastics and rubber technology at their new workplace, and another as an industrial mechanic. Most of the trainees are currently in their first or second year of training, while one is about to complete his third year. “We are delighted that you are here,” said Managing Partner Christian Wallstabe on the trainees’ first day at work.
According to those responsible at Wallstabe & Schneider, they reacted quickly to the news of the Deceuninck plant closure and introduced themselves to the trainees. They were offered the opportunity to continue their training in the stable family business. “Due to the shortage of skilled workers, we have only been able to fill some of our apprenticeships in recent years.” All the more reason to be pleased about this opportunity for both sides. The nine new employees no longer have to worry about their apprenticeships: Wallstabe & Schneider mainly supplies its seals to the automotive industry, but has adapted to the shift towards e-mobility and is also increasingly expanding its industrial sector. “We can reassure our trainees: The profession of process mechanic for plastics and rubber has a future,” assures Christian Wallstabe.
