The extensive product range of innovative products and aggressive penetration of the world market has been achieved by the creation of many subsidiaries all over the world.
FICEP have a number of local manufacturing units to support the growth and need for more automated systems worldwide. The growth in automation is brought about by a global skills shortage and the need to automate equipment, reducing costs whilst increasing production output.
