The visionary capacity of Francisco Botella González led to the birth of IFB in Barcelona in 1950 with the manufacture of rolls of paper for adding machines and calculators – an innovative and ground-breaking product in its day. His talent was passed on from father to children and became an essential ingredient for the development of the company, bringing out products such as ticketing in 1990 and, currently, RFID.
The experience acquired over the years, together with a wide range of products and production capacity for up to 800 tonnes of transformed paper, has allowed us to work on the international level by ensuring quality and sustainability standards.

QUALITY POLICY
Quality, service, consistency, enthusiasm and motivation. These are some of the reasons why IFB has maintained its prominent position in the market for almost 70 years.
An achievement due to a firm commitment to R&D and the creation of new products tailored to the needs of our customers. Constant improvement that has led us to analyse international markets and have a stronger presence now than ever before.
The implementation of ISO 9001 standards and certification by SGS helped us to implement our philosophy of high quality in all areas of the company, but our desire to improve has not faded and we continue researching to achieve the total optimization of our processes at the industrial and commercial level. This requires the involvement of the entire value chain: team, partners and customer.
