A commitment to Innovation

CYGSA’s vision is focused on the implementation of specific measures to support the transfer of technology and to promote industrial competitiveness through innovation.

TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT

We employ the most extensive range of cutting-edge technology for quality control and the development of new projects and formulations (rheology and extrusion behaviour tests, colormetry, LOI oxygen index measurement equipment, fluidity index determination, etc.).

We are also backed by the direct support of the companies in our group (Shin-Etsu, Cires and Previnil), as well as the collaboration provided by different Technology Centres.
