FAQ

Can I visit without a reservation?
Do not assume walk-in access. Confirm current availability, dates, group size and safety requirements with the official operator.
Can visitors see patented technology?
A visible process is not necessarily patented. This guide distinguishes patents from trademarks, designs, trade secrets and craft know-how; unverified patent claims are not made.
Is English-language support available?
English support could not be confirmed as a permanent service unless stated by the operator. Contact the venue in advance and consider arranging an interpreter.
