“We are thrilled to combine the high quality of Censco’s services with this leading technology,” says Juan Cardona, president and CEO of Censco LLC. “We have the resources and know-how to take charge of Mucell Extrusion, believing in the future of this technology and its vast potential to reduce plastic usage and costs for manufacturers.”
Censco has offered a full range of engineering services, equipment manufacturing and aftermarket services to the plastic industry for more than 20 years.
