🏭 I’m a Manufacturer
Select this option if your company manufactures products.
Guidelines for filling out this form:
Only list the products or processes your company directly produces or carries out in-house.
Do not include services or components you source externally from other companies.
Choose only the business categories that reflect your company’s own activities, not those of your customers.
Example: If you manufacture filling nozzles for sandwich machines, you are not a Food and Beverage Supplier. That category is only for companies that manufacture food or drink products.
Additional options for manufacturers:
You can also fill out the Industrial Involvement Form and Plant List Form to provide visitors with more detailed information about your company and capabilities.

Guidelines for filling out this form:
