Adrian Navarro, CEO of Hierros y Transformados group, Metalpanel s.a. tells us how they have known cedepa and how it has influenced their project of buying a new production line.

drian Navarro: “ Metalpanel is currently a company with an international presence, with sales in 46 countries and a turnover of 58 million Euros per year. We produce 4 million m2 and have 4 continuous sandwich panel manufacturing lines, three of them for panels with polyurethane core and one of them for panels with rock wool core. The factory uses 7000tm of polyurethane each year and processes 26,000 tons of steel. Our team of 110 people has international projection, global vocation and strong presence in cold chain as well as in construction. In Metalpanel we have always been clear our vocation of service and reinvestment in machinery that diversify product and provide value to the market of industrial enclosures. We follow the philosophy of constant improvement. That’s why we approached CEDEPA. It allowed us to see and know first-hand a continuous line working. CEDEPA was for us the occasion to learn, being able to study an installed line into depth. Also, it was useful to confirm level of skills and know-how of CEDEPA two partners, SAIP and DOW, convincing us that SAIP would have been the right partner for our project of expanding our capacities with a new production line and developing new sandwich panels.”
