\n \n Earthquake strenghtening<\/span>\n

A multifaceted company that puts the safety of its employees first. <\/h1>\n\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n

We have successfully completed earthquake-proofing on over 600 buildings, amounting to approx. 1,300,000 sq metres, designing over 9000 different earthquake strengthening elements capable of bypassing existing systems\/services without interfering with company life.
\nOur aim is to make every concrete building erected prior to 2008 earthquake proof so that businesses and their workers can carry out their activities and duties in a totally safe environment and with the utmost peace of mind.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
