ORGANISATION

Andaltec is a non-profit Private Foundation, created in 2003 by 29 different companies and organisations.

We are a National Technological Centre, acknowledged by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness.

We offer advanced technological services, R&D project development and specialised training focused on the improvement of corporative competitiveness.

Our main goal is “to contribute to the general profit of society and its economic status, through the promotion and enhancement of competitiveness in companies working with plastics as a product or process, as well as any other industry that can be benefited from the knowledge and technologies employed in the plastics and related sectors”.

 

MISSION

We intend to provide “ADDED VALUE” to companies working in the plastics and related sector by means of innovative and technological advanced services, which will increase their productivity and competitiveness in a sustainable way.

 

VISION

Creation of a “culture of innovation”, being a technological reference in R&D management for the plastics and related sectors. Support the foundation of new companies; consolidation and expansion of already existing corporations.
