Biello Aragon Institute students visit IBERFOIL

Last Thursday, April 20th, students from Basic and Midway Electrician as well as Advanced Robotics degree programs visited the IBERFOIL factory located in Sabiñánigo. They were accompanied by qualified personnel, including the company’s General Manager, Ms. Aurora Rodríguez.

The visit was a perfect opportunity to train students in the production process of IBERFOIL and to learn about the multiple applications of aluminium foil, as well as the importance of using PPR (personal protective equipment).

IBERFOIL has designed a Human Resources policy based on bringing academia closer to the business world in order to train and select new personnel for future recruiting efforts that will be required with new investments that are taking place in the medium term. In particular, IBERFOIL plans to double its workforce with 100 new hires.

The IBERFOIL tour focused on the large rolling mills and the electrical control of the entire production process by visiting the electrical control rooms and transformers with the objective of showing a real application of what they are currently studying.

The visit concluded with the installation works of the new rolling mill “Edelweiss” that is being carried out at the moment. Teachers and students showed great interest in the company and its products and the visit was considered an excellent first contact with the professional world.
