We produce specific types of tubes made out of recycled coreboard for the construction sector. Our Cofratek® tube is the ideal way to build circular columns. Its easy handling allows the use of non-specialised labour, since it is prefabricated and only needs to be placed in the desired location to obtain a perfect finish.
