building which accommodates the company is privately owned, of a surface
area equal to 10.000 m2 and constitutes one of the most advanced

of super modern equipment. The facilities of the company constitute one
of the most advanced logistic centers of Europe, in which 15.000 products

The environmental friendly concept constitutes part
of the company's philosophy and has been fully implemented in the facilities

end:

solar tubes)
