In order to stay competitive and meet customers’ demands, SIPA has extended its wide product offering to include a new range of gazebo multipurpose plates in 170 different sizes.

Founded in 1989 SIPA Srl was initially based on the production of plates and angles for hardware, with the company progressing to focus on a wide range of other items – before developing steel cutting and plastic moulding services for third parties. 

Sipa comments: “We have always looked to grow as a business by adding new products that can provide opportunities in new or existing markets. These new additions underline that we are keen to grow where possible and the new product line allows us to satisfy a greater number of customers – few companies can boast of such a complete assortment,” explains SIPA.

The additions to its product line are made possible by the company’s steel cutting department housing 30 automatic presses, with capabilities from 50 – 250 tonnes for cutting sheet coils. The company also has its own plastic pressing department, which is composed of 11 automatic presses, ranging from 50 tonnes – 430 tonnes – for pressing plastic material from granules. An additional 250 tonne bicolour press also enables the use of two different materials or two different colours simultaneously.

“To add to this, we also have our mechanical workshop that consists of four work centres, three grinding machines, one lathe, one radial drill, one microdrill, one erosion bath and two wire eroders,” points out SIPA. “Thanks to these departments, and the experience of our employees, we are able to develop a mould both for steel and plastic articles – from a simple idea, a sample, or a technical drawing. We can also produce parts using moulds from other firms. Additionally, we provide all the necessary maintenance during and after production, which enables us to supply excellent product quality combined with competitive prices.”

In addition, SIPA also has its own 7,000m² warehouse, which includes four automatic packaging lines for boxes and industrial packaging, as well as various manual packaging machines – to satisfy all customer demands. “Having the warehouse puts us in a strong position to handle the various market challenges that arise. For instance, thanks to our stocks of both raw materials and finished products, we have been able to fulfil orders to our customers very quickly,” adds SIPA. “The strength of our company is in the fact we are able to provide a 360° service with an excellent quality/price ratio and a fast delivery service.”

SIPA concludes: “As an Italian manufacturer we are synonymous with quality, service and competence. Furthermore, customers can count on our knowledge and know-how, gained from extensive experience in the markets, to provide the solutions and services customers’ demand. With this in mind, we will continue to consolidate our position as a producer and distributor in the domestic market, as well as look to grow our exports.”
