Our History and Mission
Our History
- 1953
Start of Activity
The company begins in Terrassa, a town that had experienced a great industrial boom thanks to textiles. With the crisis in this sector, entrepreneur Jordi Freixa Ubach seeks to enter new markets. He commissions Julio Ferrán with a new business project: the adaptation of equipment to work with plastic materials. The new project will be called Plásticos Ferplast.
- 1965
New Facilities
The business idea is highly successful, taking its first steps as a component supplier for industries and businesses. Methacrylate is its main product. The decision is made to invest in its own, more central facilities, which will house the company until the 1990s.
- 1970–1980
Growth and Consolidation
Plásticos Ferplast gains renown, securing high-volume clients nationwide. Despite its growth, the company remains committed to maintaining a street-level office open to the public to continue serving individual customers. The facilities, little by little, become too small.
- 1992
The Great Leap Forward
The move to a much larger industrial facility allows for greater ambition. New technologies, such as numerical control machines and robotic stations, are acquired, which will be crucial for significant advancement. The company commits to expanding its range of plastic materials and begins its expansion into EU countries.
- 2001
We are a great company
A large number of competitors have appeared in the market. However, Plásticos Ferplast's track record places it in an advantageous position that it aims to maintain by investing in new equipment: its first 5-axis machine or CAD/CAM technology.
- 2010
And onwards
ISO 9001 (currently ISO 9001:2015) was obtained, a certification that endorses the quality of Plásticos Ferplast's processes. The company entered the online world with the creation of its first virtual store. It was decided to expand the catalog of offerings with new technical plastics such as nylon, Teflon, or polyamides. Currently, Plásticos Ferplast consists of a team of over 25 people and has advanced technology machinery, including 6 numerical control (CNC) machines and a wide variety of specific machines for plastic manufacturing and processing.
