To this end, we are already working today to meet the needs of tomorrow and already have a number of showcase examples,\u201c emphasises Mariusz Musia\u0142, Alpla Country Manager Poland. \u201eWith this investment, we are particularly targeting the Polish market and ensure that our customers have sufficient rPET<\/strong>\u201c adds Beata Szynkiewicz-Razik, Commercial Director of PRT Radomsko.<\/p>
