As a technology-based and benchmark company in its sector, Hiperbaric was awarded in the Technological Innovation category.
"We are honored to receive this award, which recognizes leading European professionals and companies that have made innovations in their industries," said Andres Hernando, Hiperbaric CEO. "Hiperbaric has a 20-year history of innovation and we continue to make R&D a major focus of our company."
Hiperbaric invests more than 10% of its net profit in R&D and more than 20% of its staff is directly or indirectly involved in R&D projects.
Hiperbaric recently celebrated its 20th anniversary at which it announced the expansion of its facility in Burgos, Spain, and its latest innovation, Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) for post-processing metal parts with additive manufacturing.
The company began its journey in the field of high pressure in 1999 with the development of its first HPP (High Pressure Processing) equipment, a technology that employs high isostatic pressure (up to 6,000 bar) to extend the shelf life of food and guarantee food safety. Hiperbaric is the world leader in this technology, thanks to its commitment to R&D and its more than 20 innovation projects.
