From 1 February, the five core companies of the Netherlands-based Ushio Europe group will be legally registered as: Ushio Europe B.V., Ushio France S.A.R.L., Ushio Poland Sp. z o.o., Ushio U.K. Ltd, and Ushio Germany GmbH.
Ushio Europe group reiterates to its customers and partners that, regardless of region, the name change will not affect any existing or future orders, contracts or framework contracts etc. As part of the rebranding process, all invoicing, packaging and related documentation will switch to the new Ushio Germany GmbH name and related data from 1 February.
