Frederica Barros is the administrator of a family business that spans three continents with 10 manufacturing units. Her work at the helm of Politejo in Azambuja embodies the entrepreneurial spirit in the female form, and it is more than just to recognize her dedication with the Businesswoman Award, presented by O MIRANTE, as part of the Company of the Year Award. The distinction, sponsored by Rodoviária do Tejo and represented by Sónia Henriques, was presented this Wednesday, November 22, at the Convent of S. Francisco in Santarém.

Our presence at Agroglobal 2023 reflects our vision of a more efficient and sustainable agricultural future, where tradition and technology come together to drive progress in the industry.

On 18/07, the launch of the Sou Politejo Project took place in Brazil.
Our goal is to be an organization where people feel good, give their best, and realize their full potential, thereby contributing to the success of the business.
On the same day of the launch, we had an inspiring workshop about the values of Politejo: Agility and Efficiency, Passion and Courage, Excellence and Continuous Improvement, Team Spirit and Satisfaction, and customer focus.
The workshop promoted a valuable exchange of ideas and learnings between the HR team and team managers.
We thank everyone involved in this event and look forward to walking this path together, driving the personal and professional growth of each member of our team.

Politejo has been developing and manufacturing solutions for 45 years that improve the living conditions of populations, contributing to the preservation of the environment.

The pipe was manufactured in diameters ranging from 900 mm to 1100 mm for the overland section, while a diameter of 1400 mm and a wall thickness of 60 mm were used for the underwater section.
This pipe is part of the Os Praceres wastewater treatment plant and is anchored to the seabed of the Ria de Pontevedra, extending for 2.9 km.
In addition to the pipe, diffusers, flanges, and pipe supports have also been supplied.
The manufacture of this large diameter pipe has posed technical and logistical challenges for Politejo, as transportation had to be done by land in sections of 17 meters from our production center in Azambuja (Lisbon, Portugal) to the port of Pontevedra (Spain), and manufacturing and delivery times had to be adapted to the project's needs.
The pipe sections were joined on land at the port by butt welding, as were the pipe support joints.
