Cetemmsa Broadens its Sphere of Action to the Rest of Spain
Cetemmsa, a not-for-profit textile technological centre, has put together a new range of services so that sector companies all over Spain can put innovation to work for them to stay competitive and take advantage of the subsidies offered by the government.

According to Cetemmsa data, only 34% of sector companies are engaged in activities of technological innovation, despite the fact that innovation in products and services is one of the factors that these same companies regard as being necessary to face the challenges of the future. Likewise, only 15% of those companies engaged in innovation make corporate tax deductions under this heading.

This state of affairs has led Cetemmsa to offer a range of basic services designed to help Spanish textile companies take advantage of the innovation subsidies offered by the government.

Cetemmsa’s services can be divided into four categories:
– Implementing innovation: assessment and training in order to systematise innovation as a strategic process in the company.
– Documenting R&D&i projects: identification of innovation projects and their documentation in order to obtain tax incentives.
– Improving distribution channels: optimising management in shops as well as warehouses with the introduction of smart corners .
– Improving logistics with RF tracking systems: conducting feasibility analyses and setting up pilot tests.
