Costa Verde<\/strong> is recognized for having, probably, the best and most well-equipped porcelain<\/a> manufacturing <\/strong>facility in the world.

Professional training, certification of training entities, industrial relations and working conditions are also DGERT’s concerns. It is responsible for fostering collective procurement and for promoting social dialogue.<\/p>\n
