The development of complete process plants

Our vision aimed at providing comprehensive service to our customers has led us to develop our own engineering ,to perform process facilities and complete plants for several subsectors within food, chemical and pharmaceutical, currently constituting a business line in itself.

We also collaborate with various engineering companies and experts for those specific subsectors in which we are not experts.

Globalisation

HERPASA has the capacity, both in human and technical resources, to carry out tank installation internationally and to develop 'on-site' projects for our strong client base outside Europe. Since 2003 we have been committed to an even stronger policy of globalisation with the development of a network of representatives and local partners across Europe, Africa and Latin America, that enables us to now have a presence in 23 countries.
