A boilermaker who manufactures boilers for the food and beverage industry in Spain, Latin America, and Morocco was looking for a new boiler equipment partner. This boilermaker was looking for a partner who could provide reliable, high-quality boiler equipment for a continuous feedwater system within their premium boiler solution. When seeking support for their new high-quality boiler range, they chose to work with GESTRA because of their technical steam and condensate know-how and market-leading digital boiler equipment solutions.
