Company
ECP is an owner-managed, medium-sized manufacturer of sandwich elements with around 20 employees. The company’s philosophy is not only to develop individual products, but rather entire systems where possible, whereby the individual products are coordinated and a complete and secure solution can be offered to the customer. ECP produces high-quality sandwich elements for the creation of interior walls, roofs and facades on a modern, flexible and constantly evolving production facility. The main focus of the product portfolio is on insulation elements of the building envelope for the hygienically particularly sensitive areas of food production, processing and sales. In addition, individual special elements according to customer requirements up to entire room cubatures are also realized.
Many years of experience, continuous product development and quality controls guarantee a high level that is necessary to meet the demands and requirements of customers and markets. The simple structures of a medium-sized company with short decision-making processes ensure high flexibility and the best possible customer orientation. The know-how, which has been developed over the years by the production of elements and participation in various research projects, makes ECP one of the specialists in the field of sandwich technology.
