The commercial recognition will allow us to penetrate further into the European markets thereby extending our international footprint. Our products are of the highest standards and with this breakthrough we are endeavoring a promising outlook for growth in the coming years.” The success in the current audit has opened doors to other GWRL product range and we are looking forward to replicating similar success stories in the future.” he further added.
