innovation
Gimatic does not fear to compete and collaborate with other fields in order to find new design solutions. On the one hand, if
it is a company able to manage the whole developing process of a product – from the initial concept to the design, and from
the technological aspects to the design – on the other hand, it always listens to its suppliers’ needs by borrowing solutions
from them that are then adapted to its own product. A strategic relationship that always allows finding new methods and
that makes Gimatic a state-of-the-art company.

In order to be always competitive, Gimatic knows that it is necessary to look for new developing areas. For this reason, it decided
to invest in the electronic field that represents the future of the industrial handling. The production of components, such as magneto-resistive, electronic, and shock sensors, is an important aspect of the innovation concept and represents the inclination of
the company to know the market trends in advance so as to meet the market requirements in a concrete and innovative way.

Quality
is
our
first
objective
A high-quality product is the result of different elements and many secondary aspects. First of all, it comes from the expertise in the design, from the selection of the materials, and from the specialization of the staff. Gimatic uses innovative
and technologically sophisticated machines for the mechanic processing. Moreover, quality is guaranteed by quality control
procedures used to carry out spot checks on the components and complete checks on the finished products. The customer
satisfaction - proven by the different assessment systems – is general and concerns the whole company path: from the
finished product to the delivery, from the maintenance to the customer service.

high
profitability
All Gimatic activities aim at three objectives: optimization of spaces, reduction of times, economic saving. The innovative
product storage system, that uses 6 vertical warehouses, is the clearest example. Another concrete example is the creation of assembling islands equipped with all required tools and specific procedures that are provided by a dedicated personal computer and through which it is possible to realize any type of product. Whatever product has to be manufactured,
who occupies that workstation is able to work independently and very fast.
