OUR STORY

A worldwide benchmark brand that, with its two manufacturing plants in Gipuzkoa and a team of 35 workers, has been placed among the 10 best companies in the world in the manufacture of floor chemicals, with sales in more than 35 countries. A brand which began its activity by manufacturing floor varnishes and which, 67 years later, has managed to specialise, successfully addressing the international market and increasing its product range through a clear commitment: innovation.
