Key highlights include:

The assistance received under the Energy Efficiency Actions Program for SMEs and Large Companies in the Industrial Sector with financial support from the EUROPEAN UNION, has not only provided substantial
aid covering a significant portion of our project investment but has also accelerated its implementation. This support serves as a motivating force and a crucial catalyst for our operations, reducing costs for our company and shortening the project’s payback period. We are committed to sustainability, and this project aligns with our environmental goals.
