To cover the specific technical needs of each sector, the group has set up four business units: automotive, domestic, electromechanical and healthcare.

The plant in Czech Republic (Inteplast CZ) is key to this expansion, mainly as a partner in the automotive industry to design and manufacture precision and high technical parts like pump housings. Jose Adame, Plant Manager; Lukáš Ryneš, Production Manager, and Luboš Bradáč, Tooling & Process Engineering Manager at Inteplast CZ, explain:

Gears are essential for the operation of a wide variety of machines and devices (electric motors, bicycles, household appliances, robots, dispensers, etc.).

Why is industry replacing metal gears with plastic ones? Xavier Arcos, Metrology Manager and Gear Specialist at Inteplast, explains:

Inteplast has a team of engineers in the Metrology and Technical Departments who work closely with each other on each customer's projects to provide them with technological and financial solutions:

• Analytical inspection of gears using different software and hardware, as well as three-dimensional machines, computer tomography, etc.
• Selection of the most suitable thermoplastic material.
• Mould construction and validation.
• Manufacture at our plants in Vall de Bianya (Girona, Spain) and the Czech Republic with over 22,000 square metres, 100 injection moulding machines (50-320 Tn) and a 1,500 square metres clean room.

Our technical know-how, experience and latest generation technology allow Inteplast to develop gears of different types and complexity (spur, helical, worm, bevel and planetary).

Another of the company’s strengths is the standardisation of production processes backed by ISO 9001, IATF16949 (automotive) and ISO 13485 (medical devices), which guarantee the highest quality, stability and reliability of our gears.

Inteplast has installed 1,850 solar panels on the roof and side façade of its production plant in Vall de Bianya (Girona, Spain) to reduce carbon emissions, in an example of the company’s commitment to sustainability and the United Nations2030 Agenda .

By installing these solar panels, Inteplast will cover roughly 15% of its annual power consumption and stop 230,000 tonnes of CO2 from being put into the atmosphere each year.

The Vall de Bianya plant has 10,000 square metres, three production areas and a white room for the medical division, with seventy injection machines, a metrology lab, mould workshop, warehouse, logistics space and offices. Given its activity, in 2023 it was classified as an electro-intensive company.

In recent years, Inteplast has taken several actions to make the company more energy efficient and promote its energy transition, as part of the lean manufacturing, and has recently been awarded ISO 50001 energy management certification.

The post Inteplast aposta per l’energia solar a la planta de la Vall de Bianya appeared first on Inteplast.

ISO 50001 is a voluntary international standard that assists organisations in implementing an energy policy and managing measures to promote more efficient and sustainable energy use in their operations (installations, products, etc.).

The main goals of Inteplast’s Energy Management System, established until 2030, include:

• Reducing its carbon footprint
• Optimising energy consumption in internal processes

The attainment of ISO 50001 has been made possible by the dedicated efforts of the entire Inteplast team.

This certification marks the sixth achievement for the company, following previous certifications in ISO 14001 (environment), ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 13485 (medical products), IATF16949 (automotive) and ISO 27001 (information security), all focused on the design, development and manufacturing of high-performance thermoplastic solutions based on lean manufacturing.

The goal is to tackle the environmental challenges faced by the healthcare industry, where over 50% of plastic use is single-use due to hygiene and sterilisation requirements.

With these new organic-based and biodegradable formulations, adaptable to complex geometries and injection processes, two specific medical applications will be initially developed and tested: a dermal patch for drug release with reduced environmental impact, and a biodegradable suture kit, a product currently featuring a complex packaging system and significant consumption.

“PHASAL is a pioneering innovation project selected by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and funded by the European Union, where industry and research collaborate to drive sustainable solutions for the healthcare sector. At Inteplast, we will leverage our expertise and knowledge in the development and production of high technical performance plastic solutions,” explains Adriana Carré, director of Inteplast Medical, the specialised healthcare division of Inteplast.

“The selection of bio-based and biodegradable materials, such as polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), is essential for a more sustainable future, and VEnvirotech’s expertise in this field ensures that the PHASAL project remains at the forefront of innovation,” explains Germán Perez, head of the VEomaterial department at VEnvirotech.

The director of the Polymer Processes and Compounds Unit at Eurecat, Enric Fontdecaba, remarks, “In addition to developing new advanced bioplastic formulations, we’ll test their processing and validation in the healthcare field, as well as in other sectors where their use can be extended.”

Researcher Luis J. del Valle from the PSEP-UPC group explains, “The project poses a technological challenge involving the study of the application of these new biodegradable plastics as drug delivery systems. Hence, these bioactive agents will be encapsulated in PHA. An important milestone will be establishing the interactions between PHA and the bioactive agents, as dosage and release rely on them.”

The project, with a budget exceeding 800,000 euros, will span three years and is funded by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the European Union through the NextGenerationEU programme (competitive call for Proyectos de Colaboración Público-Privada).
