Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct field sales through regional branches, augmented by industry-association partnerships (VDIV Berlin Brandenburg) and sports sponsorships (TSV 1860 München, Handball Bundesliga Frauen Final4, SV Stuttgarter Kickers) for regional brand-building. End customers span residential, commercial office, industrial, hospitality, healthcare, retail, and public-sector segments, with named enterprise references including Vetter Pharma (full-service maintenance of ~60 elevators) and a Bergisch Gladbach vocational school modernization completed in 8 months during ongoing operations.
