Since 1972, we have dealt with R&D, Engineering, mold construction, and Plastics injection molding of technical components and aesthetic items for many industrial sectors.
We specialize in Metal Replacement with high-performance polymers and Eco-Design to develop low-carbon footprint products with recycled and expanded polymers and biopolymers.
Since 2011, we have been accredited as a Research Laboratory to the Emilia-Romagna High Technology Network and manage Customers' R&D Projects, Regional and European Research Projects.
We act as a Full System Supplier to allow our Customers to simplify the supply chain management and speed up the supplies.
METAL REPLACEMENT with HIGH PERFORMANCE POLYMERS
We specialize in Metal Replacement with experience gained since the early ‘80s. In 40 years of project development, carried out in co-design with Customers and Suppliers, we have achieved remarkable results in terms of performance improvement and greater competitiveness. Today, we also see a strong interest in the reduction of the Carbon Footprint obtained through lightweighting with Metal Replacement.
ECO-DESIGN FOR LOW-CARBON FOOT-PRINT PRODUCTS
We have many years of experience in Eco-Design for Carbon Footprint reduction and Circular Economy in different contexts: - Structural lightweighting with high-performance polymers; - Material Replacement: replacement of standard plastic with recycled polymers, expanded polymers, and biopolymers;
FULL SYSTEM SUPPLIER FROM R&D TO LOGISTICS
Customers increasingly require more flexibility and proactivity in meeting new technical requirements and offering complementary, value-added services and multi-expertise. GHEPI responds to these needs with its Full System Supplier business model which allows Customers to rationalize and simplify their Supply Chain management through: • Integration of all stages of project development, from R&D to engineering, from mold construction to industrialization, from on-site to outsourced manufacturing processes, from logistics to complementary services, enabling our Customers to simplify and optimize supplies management. • Modularity of the overall system to provide our Customers with a high added value platform and the advantages of customized service.
EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL R&D PROJECT
We have many years of experience participating in National and European R&D projects. We are available to participate in new projects in our areas of expertise (injection molding technologies, eco-design, polymeric materials, etc.) or as end-users for complementary technologies, innovation processes, etc.
