The Miranda de Ebro Technology Center (CTME) inaugurates a growth phase with the acquisition of an adjacent 700-meter building and offices, aimed at strengthening its research line in metallic materials coating and consolidating its position in the prestigious Cervera network.
The Miranda de Ebro Technology Center (CTME) has announced a significant expansion with the purchase of an annexed plot of land and an already constructed building, adding more than 1,000 square meters to its facilities. This expansion responds to the need for additional space to deepen its specialization in coating technologies for metallic materials using the ‘cold spray’ thermal projection technique, at low and medium pressures.
This strategic decision places CTME in an advantageous position within the Cervera network, a program of the Center for the Development of Industrial Technology (CDTI), aimed at positioning Spain at the forefront of strategic areas for economic development. The new infrastructure will not only facilitate advanced research but will also allow the center to expand its capacity in the study of plastic materials and biopolymers, reorganizing its current space to maximize the efficiency and scope of its operations.
The director of the center, Juan José García, has emphasized that the incorporation to the Cervera network and the acquisition of the new facilities were crucial decisions to maintain the competitiveness and prestige of CTME in the technological field. He also pointed out that the expansion will facilitate the reorganization of various work areas, such as the non-destructive testing laboratories, and will improve the conditions for certification by important international clients such as Rolls-Royce and Safran.
With a promising future, CTME not only expects to grow in terms of infrastructure and technical capacity, but also in human talent, projecting an increase in its workforce to 55 employees by the end of the year. This expansion is testament to the center’s continued ambition to lead in technological innovation and its commitment to professional development and talent retention.
This milestone represents a significant step forward for CTME and underscores its commitment to excellence and innovation in an increasingly technological and competitive world.
