1. Please, give us a brief description of your company.

PUERTAS SAN RAFAEL is a company that serves as a key point of reference within the renovation market relating to interior doors. Its philosophy is based on values such as innovation and tailor-made service, featuring the widest variety of products on the Spanish market.

We are a team with a clear vocation to serve our customers, one made up of some 210 professionals. We invest considerable passion in our work by paying attention to every detail and by offering different solutions adapted to every taste and need, based on innovative designs and the very best finish.

2. Why are you taking part at CONSTRUTEC?

We like to implement our philosophy of remaining close to our customers and clients, and CONSTRUTEC, as a key point of reference within the building industry at a national and international level, provides an ideal showcase at which to pursue our daily objectives. For our company, the fair provides a marvellous opportunity with which to continue establishing contact with members of the industry, professionals we can exchange and share ideas with.

3. What main objectives will you be pursuing through your attendance at the fair?

At PUERTAS SAN RAFAEL we aim to continue the work that we began at the fair in the year 2004, which enabled us to win the Stand Design Award at CONSTRUTEC 2006. In this respect, we shall pursue two directions: we aim to provide a key meeting-point at the fair for distributors, architects, decorators and other professionals from the industry, presenting new architectural trends based on door designs that are simple, balanced and sustainable; at the same time, we aim to share new solutions, thus helping to boost users' style of life with regard to health, well-being and a greater sense of security, all through the door products we supply.

4. What do you consider to be the most positive aspects of the fair?

CONSTRUTEC is a special event for PUERTAS SAN RAFAEL, given that the majority of our customers and clients are from Spain and the fair provides us with the ideal venue at which to meet them. Furthermore, the fair guarantees the attendance of almost 30 thousand visitors, all of whom have a very strong and varied professional profile. Nevertheless, all of the visitors have a common characteristic: they are all looking for something different to help them in their daily work and lives, which is where PUERTAS SAN RAFAEL comes in.

5. How can a fair such as CONSTRUTEC help with your company's marketing strategies?

At PUERTAS SAN RAFAEL we are extremely happy with CONSTRUTEC due to the developments that have taken place at recent editions in this respect. We believe that the measures being taken to attract a greater number of visitors to the fair, through the Spanish Foreign Trade Institute (ICEX) and through specialised magazines, are extremely positive. In addition, any measure that helps us to promote "San Rafael" through conferences, events, the organisation of awards presentations, etc., within the framework of the fair, is extremely favourable in our view.

6. Do you consider the facilities at Feria de Madrid and in the capital of Spain itself to be appropriate for a fair featuring the characteristics of an event such as CONSTRUTEC?

Clearly the answer to this question is affirmative for many reasons. Due to its size, demands and geographical location, Madrid serves as a key point of reference throughout Spain in relation to all aspects concerning construction. With regard to the facilities at Feria de Madrid, the fairground has proven in recent years to be perfectly equipped to organise any event of this kind, as well as being extremely well connected. In short, CONSTRUTEC has carved out a place for itself among the leading building fairs on the European circuit.

7. How would you rate IFEMA in its capacity as the body that organises the fair?

Our opinion is highly favourable, due to the sterling work that IFEMA is carrying out in terms of organising activities for a multitude of different sectors. At the end of the day, IFEMA is a key supporting factor in terms of guaranteeing our successful results.
