Key Figures

2010 was an excellent year,
2011 is full of promise!

The CTP posted sound results for 2010 and achieved its annual objectives. It is pursuing its ongoing innovation policy, which includes a highly selective approach to investment. The CTP met its commitments, especially in terms of turnover, which increased by 5% to nearly €11.5m, but also in regard to long-term orders, which amounted to €7.5m.

 

2010 was an exceptional year for investments.

 The CTP’s ambitious investment programme was implemented in its entirety, with substantial backing from the Rhone-Alps region and ERDF:

•  chromatogenic chemistry pilot;

•  plasma pilot;

•  flushability laboratory;

•  virtualisation of the centre’s 19 computer servers.

 

Broad prospects are opening up in 2011:

•   a programme to improve accessibility of the CTP’s premises, backed by the AFPI1;

•   ongoing modernisation of management resources
    (change of ERP2 system, integrated management programme);

•   on the operations front, a pilot cellulose microfibril production unit
