Welcoming our shareholders

 

For the first time, Plastic Omnium organized a visit for shareholders in the international R&D center, α-Alphatech (Compiègne, France). Inaugurated by French President François Hollande in April 2016, this center is dedicated to the fuel systems and depollution technologies.

On November 9, 2016, 30 privileged shareholders discovered “Alphalab”, where development tests are undertaken and “Alphavision” our virtual reality room.

Our experts took them through the details and complexity of a fuel system and explained the most advanced Plastic Omnium solutions for NOx depollution.

To build on this successful day, Plastic Omnium will be organizing other shareholders’ visits in 2017.
