Our history began in 1984, with the arrival of Mr. Rafael Montuenga Maestre in the small town in the interior of S\u00e3o Paulo called Torrinha. Our trajectory, since then, has been traced by many fights and victories.<\/p>\n

The essence of Citr\u00f3leo’s construction has always been based on love for nature, and this is what made us a strongly responsible company, with values committed to sustainability and being natural in itself.<\/p>\n
