20 February 2013. Grove, UK. The Williams F1 Team (Ticker: WGF1) is
pleased to announce that it has signed an upgraded partnership with Kemppi,
a world-leader in the manufacture of welding equipment.
Kemppi manufactures arc welding equipment. Founded in 1949 by Martti
Kemppi, the family run business has introduced many new innovations to the
market over the past 60 years, serving industries such as shipbuilding,
metal workshops and transportation. Headquartered in Lahti, Finland,
Kemppi has a global presence with subsidiaries in 15 territories and
customers in more than 70 countries worldwide.
Kemppi first joined the Williams F1 Team's portfolio of partners in April
2012. This upgraded agreement will see the Kemppi logo positioned on the
front wing endplate of the Williams Renault FW35 and the sleeve of the
drivers' overalls and team apparel. Kemppi and Williams will also continue
their technical cooperation which sees Williams benefit from Kemppi's
expertise in welding equipment, by integration of products at the factory
and races.
Speaking about the partnership Anssi Rantasalo, Chief Executive Officer of
Kemppi, commented; 'We've been supporting Valtteri for several years now
and it's great to see him get the chance to show what he can do on the
world stage this season. It's also been a great honour for Kemppi to
partner with one of the most successful teams in Formula One history and
through this we will be hoping for more success for the Williams F1 Team
this year. Our relationship also encompasses a technology partnership and
we are showing that our welding equipment can meet the stringent demands of
Formula One'.
Sir Frank Williams, Team Principal of the Williams F1 Team, added; 'We're
delighted that Kemppi, with their strong commitment to motorsport, have
increased their commitment to the Williams F1 Team and look forward to
building on our already strong relationship throughout the season'.
