On Schönrock's initiative, negotiations about a cooperation were held with the Scottish bathtub manufacturer Carron. Carron was initially to produce acrylic bathtubs for ACO for sale on the German market in two standard sizes. Then the Scots were to help set up ACO’s own acrylic bathtub production in Andernach. But this would require considerable investment. Severin Ahlmann hesitated. When the negotiations with Carron reached the crucial phase at the beginning of 1974, the company owner was on business overseas General manager Arno Seeger hesitated to make such a far-reaching strategic decision without consulting the company owner. No deal was reached.
