Flexibility immensely valuable
Vice Versa needed a contingency solution and found an immediate response at Coolworld. "We had a number of options and initially everyone said they could help us," says Guus van den Boogaard. "Often that was not the case in the end. But Coolworld came the same afternoon with a concrete proposal with costing. We gave a 'go' on that and then it was realized miraculously fast."
Coolworld's flexibility is enormously valuable in this regard. "We don't know when the fixed installation will be ready. For us, it's crucial to transition seamlessly. The flexibility offered by Coolworld is a huge plus in this regard."
