“Strive for progress, not perfection.”
Before we say goodbye to 2016 and wish you a Happy New Year we’d like to look back and sum up our top 10 achievements for the past year. It’s been a busy year full of changes. There were tough times but at the end of the day this made us even more competitive on the global market and led us to a significant progress.

Perhaps, some of them will trigger your interest in exploring opportunities to cooperate with us.
