"We are excited about the opportunity to do business in India. Our raw materials are locally sourced in an environmental friendly manner. We do not touch agricultural land to excavate clay in India. This makes our products an excellent example of green building materials and allows us to keep with our tradition of environment friendly production practices. The plant is built with state-of-the -Art European machines and uses the same technology than our plants in, say France, Germany or UK. Integrated in our factory is a laboratory in which we continuously test all raw materials and finished products. In all regards, our production abides by European Standards in quality of output and process." commented Rudy Van Reith, Managing Director, Technical.
