This is a space for you to keep up to date with our research and innovation in the foundry world.
R + D + I
EUSKATFUND collaborates with technological research centers, laboratories and universities where it participates and develops projects with a high technological and environmental burden. We want to make a positive impact and we want our clients to be able to obtain optimal results in line with the quality we promise.
The objective is to transfer these new developments and improvements to our customers to improve their competitiveness in an increasingly globalized world.
That is why, from Euskatfund and in collaboration with several technological research centres, laboratories and universities, we are developing and participating in projects that are committed to these characteristics and to innovation.
