Our Profile The Edscha Group has been a partner to the automobile industry since the invention of the automobile. Under the umbrella of Gestamp Automoción today we serve from 19 production sites worldwide, including 14 production plants, almost all motor vehicle manufacturers with our products and our know-how. In each of our divisions we hold leading competitive positions. Thus, Edscha is world market leader and leader in innovation for door hinges and door checks in the Hinge Systems Division. In Driver Controls (foot controls and parking brakes) we are one of the leading european suppliers. Our Goal The primary objective of Edscha is to steadily increase the value of the Company in the interest of its employees and customers. To achieve this, our products, our manufacturing processes and our customer service must be "best in class" and remain so. Accordingly, we concentrate on niches in the automobile industry in which we already hold such a position or can work to obtain it in the medium term. Our Way To achieve our goal, we take advantage of the most important trends in the automotive sector: globalization, reduction of the number of suppliers, extension of the range of products from components to create modules and systems, and outsourcing of production and development. In future we intend to improve our excellent market position further mainly by expanding our development capacities – a major success factor and a market with growing significance in the automobile industry.
