Staying on the furniture ironwork market for 54 years is no easy feat, and even more so when competing with German companies who bill more than fifteen times as much as Indaux. One of Indaux’s key elements to be more competitive has always been investment in machinery and technology, a strategy our president, Miguel Rioja, has always promoted since its foundation. Veteran employees remember the 70s, when profiling machines to make sliding doors replaced the stamping presses that had been operating for less than a year. “We had best stop ourselves before we get stopped,” said Miguel at the time to astonished area manager, Nicolás Areilzaga. Indaux also had the first plastic and Zamak injection machines in Gipuzkoa, the first NCR computer and the first 3D office printer in Gipuzkoa. R+D+I and investment in technology are part of Indaux’s DNA. Productivity is a challenge the entire company faces.
Given its policy of permanent investment, this year Indaux has renewed its machinery, 
in order to improve efficiency and increase the product portfolio. To do so, more efficient and ecological machinery was purchased. Efficiency will also be improved by implementing a TPM system (total productive maintenance), automating new processes and optimising quality control, using computer vision. Investment was made both in machines for mechanical shops and in tools to make new products. And entire automated production lines have been implemented. Always with the goal of remaining competitive and ensuring the company’s future.
