This gives it high recognition from worldwide.
The automation level of the whole plastic processing industry is not too high, manual and semi-automated production lines are common. In the past, manufacturers did not need too high requirements for product precision, processing efficiency, etc., as they would choose directly some less stable automated design schemes that would have to be adjusted every half month or a month. Now, with greater automation, processors can no longer tolerate debugging or even stopping, so more customers are starting to pursue highend EOAT, which is the market.

The Italian innovations projected by the company are best in quality and more innovative, upgraded to the latest technologies. This gives them the scope of growth in the Indian market. Through its high perfectioned quality products and innovations, Gimatic plans to strengthen its roots in India and reach to more and more customers needs.

This means, high competitiveness with low prices, but our customers save more from the whole processes from design, purchase till maintenance due to the high life and reliable products”
