SPOTLIGHT ON COLQUÍMICA, WTC LISBOA

We are pleased to re-launch the “SME Showcase” section of the WTCA Meridian^TM e-newsletter to feature a local business member or small- to medium-sized enterprise (SME) at one of our Member WTC businesses. The SME Showcase will provide a 30-second elevator pitch about the SME, along with information on how to connect with the SME for more information.

Our first participant in the SME Showcase is Colquímica (submitted by WTC Lisboa). Colquímica was recently named as a winner of the first edition of WTC Lisboa’s “Innovation and Internationalization” Awards Program in the Small Mid-Cap category, as well as overall program winner amongst the five winners. The awards program received an impressive 134 applications across five categories, taking into account the scale of business and geographic markets of operation for each business. Read on below for more information about Colquímica.

About Colquímica:

Colquímica manufactures industrial adhesives, specifically hot-melt adhesives for quick bonding processes, which represent the majority of the company’s business. Its main clients are multinational companies in the food, hygiene products and automotive sectors. The company stands out from its competitors through operational agility, enabling it to respond to customers with shorter lead times.
