HRC Announcing Compositex Acquisition
Dear LinkedIn Community,
now we are covering
JEC World 2024,
and I'm at the HRC booth
and together with Jordi Aranega,
who is the Vice President of HRC,
and he has some very,
very nice information,
announcement to make.
And I'm very happy that
during the #Composites360OnTour
we are getting also
the latest of the latest
here from the show floor.
Jordi, thanks for being
part of my show.
Thank you to you,
to have us.
Jordi, what is the announcement?
Well, we just
announced and signed,
we integrate a company
called Compositex,
an Italian company,
in our family.
So now we integrate
the last piece we need
for our being
a global source of
carbon fiber.
And we are very,
very interested and
very happy about
the announcement.
So, run us through
the HRC group,
of course,
it's a Chinese company and
you are based in Barcelona (Spain)
overseeing the European market.
Where else are you located?
in Europe,
we have also
a big presence,
because we have an
engineering company in UK.
Also, we have a
commercial office
in Germany.
And in Italy,
we have a
commercial office
in Milano,
and now the Compositex in Vicenza,
near Venice.
And for sure,
we are located in Barcelona,
where all the HRC things starts.
Through this localization,
the main benefit,
of course, is
that you are already
close to the customers.
Do you see any other benefit
of having this decentralization?
Well, I think
it's the most important
to be aware of our customers
that we are a global partner.
We want to to bring
everything the best of
every location we have.
And the idea is to work
close with the customer
and be
a tailor made solution for them.
So with that step,
we increase our presence in Europe.
And the compromise of being,
totally a global partner.
Any plans for the future,
if I may ask you?
We want to still work
very close to our
potential customers.
We want to grow
with them.
So who knows?
Okay.
All the best for the future.
And I'm really
applauding you for the growth
that you are doing
here in Europe.
Thank you so much.
Have a great show.
