cip.sa (Uk) LTD

since 2004, we have been developing the technologies for establishing production of ethanol from organic waste for the global market. in july 2006 the board of cip made a decision to establish an operation in costa rica, since this country is well positioned in relation to the us market, and it has a considerable amount of fruit production. from the start, we have been working in collaboration with various universities and research centers in europe. our strategy has always been to develop a technology for the use of organic waste materials for the production of ethanol and co2, rather than from cash crops. we have developed a series of units that due to their compact design can be installed next to existing fruit processing factories, thus reducing transportation of waste, which in most cases has a high water content. our business model for our technology was also designed to solve the direct environmental problem that the fruit waste constitutes; this we have solved with our process.
