7 Comparison aimed at 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.

11 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.

12 vertical warehouses More than one million of grippers produced in 25 years Saving and 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.
