OUR HISTORY

Since 1967, three generations dedicated to mechanical precision

Founded in 1967 in Maniago by Guido Pascotto and Silvio Coassin, VIPACO began as a company specializing in the production of small metal components for the knife industry. It soon began to specialize in the turning of precision mechanical parts, with the aim of meeting the needs of an increasingly developed local clientele.

HISTORY

CONSTANT GROWTH

Starting in the 1980s, VIPACO expanded its reach nationwide and entered new sectors such as refrigeration and textile machinery. In 1987, it began exporting to European Union countries, opening the door to international markets.

In 1994, the company passed to the second generation, led by brothers Federico and Carlo Coassin and Irene Pascotto, marking an important phase of commercial consolidation, which allowed for the doubling of the warehouse and the acquisition of new CNC sliding headstock and turret machines. The experience gained thus made it possible to enter new strategic sectors such as hydraulics, photography, and eyewear.

Innovation, quality, and new markets

In the early 2000s, the company obtained ISO9001 certification and decided to invest primarily in its workforce, introducing qualified technical personnel with the aim of meeting new demands and strengthening relationships with key foreign markets, particularly Germany. This led to the start of production of the first components for the medical sector and subsequently also for the aeronautical sector.

In 2017, VIPACO began specializing in the production of automotive parts, resulting in IATF 16949 certification in 2020.

Towards the future: quality and sustainability

In recent years, the company has therefore expanded its production process, introducing cutting-edge technologies to refine quality and efficiency. Sustainability has always been an integral part of the company’s strategy, enabling it to achieve ISO 14001 environmental certification in 2020.

Today marks the beginning of the transition to the third generation, in the spirit of continuity and innovation, with the aim of offering customers tailor-made solutions that meet the required quality standards.
