Borgstena is preparing a 10 million euro investment in its Textile Division in Portugal, with a view to increasing its production capacity, efficiency and meeting sustainable targets. The execution period is 12 months.
‘The investment will mainly be to increase the production area of this facility, reaching a total covered area of 51,000 square metres,’ announces CEO Jorge Machado. It is also planned to install new machines and additional value-added technologies to reduce energy and water consumption.
According to the Board of Directors, this investment will enable a 6.4 per cent reduction in CO2 emissions, in scope 1 and 2, by the end of 2025. ‘This production unit is already recognised as an example within our industry, but our team is now going to take it to the next level of excellence,’ he concludes.
