Mission statement JAG Group

Philosophy and unique selling points

Protecting investments with our own developments

Our customers can have peace of mind that their investment is safe. We offer a 10-year guarantee on our controllers and a 20-year guarantee on replacement parts.

System developers and integrators

Unlike many of our competitors, we not only integrate existing software, but also develop our own new software programs and modules. This is one reason why our systems achieve above-average process efficiency.

Collaborative innovations

Our system developers stay in close contact with customer specialists. Many of our specific solutions are the result of this collaborative development. Being able to access this quickly and directly gives customers a competitive advantage.

Other important benefits for customers

We offer flexible, modular and customised systems that can be operated intuitively and reliably. We react quickly and pragmatically, without getting bogged down in bureaucracy. We also make communication easy by giving you the same JAG contact partner for all your needs and wishes.
