Annual Report 2013 www.recope.com
All this work responds to the commitment to customer
service, procurement of equipment, materials and chemical
products, based on the quality and quantity of the product
supplied. The importance of ensuring these results by the
laboratories mainly involved the degree of the specification that
the product for national distribution must comply with, for the
adequate operation of motors and boilers in the country.
By the end of the year 2013, ARESEP officially and
publicly acknowledged that RECOPE passed 100% of the quality
inspections performed during the year on their products, by the
laboratories at the University of Costa Rica, LANAMME and CELEQ.
