Already on SPPP deck when SORA was the owner, I have the pleasure to run this site since many years.
We joint APLA Kk group in October 2018 and this type of change is important in a company history.
The factory of Saint Berthevin is wellknown in the market of paint application for the competence of its women and man highly involved and performing daily.
One could easily forget it, as serving the automotive industry where the « ppm hunt » is a basis but delivering 50 000 painted parts a day with 25 different color tone is a challenge where a solid and well oiled organization is needed.
We always find the key words here : quality and reactivity making this site a reference in the market of the industrial painting.
