Atlas Copco has just moved one step forward on web design, with the launch of web in responsive design, in order to provide all customers, prospects and other stakeholders with an optimal and efficient viewing experience across a wide range of different technologies be it computers, tablets or smartphones.
Today, more than half of the internet users in countries like the U.S., India and China are using tablets or smart phones rather than laptops or desktop computers. In business to business the rate of adaptation is still low, but expected to increase rapidly in the near future.
With responsive design all Atlas Copco websites will recognise the type of devise the visitor is using and adapt the website format to suit the size of this device. This means Atlas Copco will meet visitors’ demands and make it easy to navigate on the websites. Web responsive design guarantees easy reading and navigation with a minimum or resizing and scrolling as the layout adapts itself to the screen size of the visitors' devices. On smaller screens (like smartphones, tablets), the website will always show at its optimum, no matter which device the visitor is using.
In 2013 Atlas Copco, ranked as one of the most innovative and sustainable companies in the world, celebrates 140 years of profitable growth. At the beginning the company made products for railways, but the core of Atlas Copco’s business dates back to the early years of the 20th century when the first compressors, tools and rock drills were manufactured. Today, the Atlas Copco Group has world-leading positions in these areas and many others. Atlas Copco supports customers in 180 countries with own operations in 90 countries.
