Zach

Another step forward in the development of the chemicals business

2020 was the second year of the five-year plan to relaunch the chemicals business. Despite the strong limitations imposed by the epidemic, we continued with our plant's investments plan, completing the revamp of our warehouses and continuing the process of systems automation and of the digitalisation of processes. Our results were once again exceptional: thanks to the impetus of our new projects, we ended the year with upwards of 45 million euros in turnover and an EBIT of fully 4.5 million euros (+250%)
