Therefore we replaced obsolete equipment with modern ones. In the production department of the plant about 150 presses work, 55 of which are of the rotary types. This has increased the products quality and also has helped improve productivity.
As a result the plant has reached the level of the world’s best manufacturers. This has excelled them in different and new directions.
