Production of this latest technology will take place in a 20,000-square-meter closed area located on a 50,000-square-meter site. Teknomelt, the pioneer of many innovations, will be a source of inspiration for its environment and its sector with this plant, which will use the latest technology, low carbon emissions and energy consumption.
