Thorsten Rechthaler, Managing Director aero-naut Modellbau GmbH & Co KG

“INTERMODELLBAU is a focal point for different areas of model making and the mix of different sectors is what makes it so interesting. Techniques and tricks can be seen here across all sectors, which also motivate people to imitate them in their own area.”

1st question:
What do you always particularly look forward to at INTERMODELLBAU?
The many interested model builders who will hopefully be attending in large numbers again this year. The exchange with our customers and colleagues is very important to us and we look forward to it every year.

2nd question:
What do you think makes a trade fair like INTERMODELLBAU so important for the model-making world?

Intermodellbau is a meeting point for different areas of model making and the mix of different sectors is what makes it so interesting. Techniques and tricks can be seen here across all sectors, which also motivate visitors to imitate them in their own area. Of course, Dortmund is also an excellent location for its European neighbors, which gives the trade fair an international flair.

3rd question:
What topics and trends are driving the industry/your sector this year?

A major topic for some time now has of course been cost-effectiveness and sustainability. As a German manufacturer, we show that model making made in Germany does not have to be expensive and works extremely well. Targeted innovations and new products are constantly stimulating the market.
