From May 1st till 3rd, Xieta International was present at the Ceramics Expo (Cleveland, USA), as it has been usual in each of its summons since it began in 2014.
This is a very special event within the exhibition circuit of the technical ceramic sector in which we are present, since it has been the gateway for our products in the United States and Canada market. In fact, in the edition of the previous year, we started a collaboration, that has allowed us to close a final agreement, with Carbo Ceramics Inc. in order to be exclusive distributors of alumina grinding media of Xieta International, S.L. for USA and Canada.
One more year Hans Van Der Heijden participated in the race that was held at the European Handbike Circuit in the town of Louny in the Czech Republic.
The weather forecast for this event is usually rainy, which makes the race difficult but in this edition the temperatures were high and without wind.
The personal challenge of Hans for this race was to reduce the 28 min in the 16 km time trial (his time in the last edition was 28 min 38 sec.) and he did it, scoring 26 min and 53 sec. So once again, we congratulate Hans for his achievement and evolution.
