From a craft-made reality...
Giancarlo De Molli Industries S.p.a. was founded in 1948 as a simple artisanal enterprise dealing
with the production of tools.
The founder, Giancarlo De Molli, immediately knew how to combine traditional values ​of the "know
how" experience with the great potential of cutting edge technology.
In 1964 the production of hinges for motor
vehicles began, starting with hot steel forming.
In the late '60s, De Molli Giancarlo Industrie
S.p.a. acquires the first electric induction furnace
that will revolutionize forever its method of
industrial production.

Design,
combined
with
research
and
development, characterizes all of our products.
The R&D department is made up and run by
highly qualified engineers that, starting from
mathematical models or a specific design, are
able, also with the assistance of CAD centers,
to develop and manage the entire process.
We carry out projects developed on internal
specifications, but we can also build, according
to specific customer requirements, any kind of
product, providing co-design and coengineering services.
This philosophy has enabled us to register several patents in
several industrial fields, whether properties or shared with
customers
