RTA particleboard furniture maker in Colombia using panels from Ecuador
A new plant has been launched in Colombia for the manufacture of ready-to-assemble (RTA) furniture using particleboard produced in neighbouring Ecuador. RTA Design SA, a flat pack furniture maker based in Medellin, Colombia has begun operating the new 6,602m2 production unit in Yumbo in Colombia's Cauca Valley region. Panels for its products are being supplied by Ecuadorian board makers Aglomerados Cotopaxi SA and Novopan SA. The Colombian-owned RTA company invested around US$2.94m in its new plant with another US$220,000 spent on machinery.
