Pedro Pereira, Martifer country manager, says, “These projects are the result of a long and rigorous process that we are very proud to have successfully completed. After our experience in Sicily, where we had developed a plant based on this technology, now our goal is to continue to fulfill our customer’s needs in key areas such as flexibility, quality and timing, as we have done in our previous work.”

Both facilities are expected to be complete by the end of 2010.
