Geico is a world leader in the design and construction of turnkey automated auto body paintshops.
With the Pardis Project, launched in 2005, Geico was the world’s first company to offer a zero environmental impact paintshop, reducing consumption by 70%. The target date set for Energy Independence Day (June 16, 2020), was achieved 3 years ahead of schedule, in 2017.
However, we did not stop there!
Our new challenge for 2030 is the Sustainable Paintshop, i.e. the creation of a sustainable plant with a circular approach, that is self-sufficient in energy and carbon-neutral.
What is the first step in the realisation of this important project? CO2-Free Day by 2027.
The Smart Paintshop revolutionizes auto body paintshops with innovative and energy-efficient 4.0 technologies.
It received the SurCar Cannes Innovation Award for best research and innovation worldwide.
the series of innovative tools and procedures that allow the delivery time for a paintshop to be drastically reduced, while maintaining high-quality standards.
thanks to its IOT technology system, the plant can analyze data, communicate with the operator, and learn to become increasingly efficient.
the plant is capable of adapting to continuously changing production needs, meeting the needs of individual customers using a logic of mass customization.
the collaboration between human beings and machines is maximized to constantly monitor the plant’s performance and to identify any anomalies.
4.0 technologies allow the plant to monitor energy consumption and adapt it to the production capacity.
this is the centralized digital platform (Digital Twin) that allows every process and processing phase to be monitored. It simplifies quality control, predictive maintenance, and the management of the paintshop as a whole, thereby progressively improving its performance and efficiency.
Respect, responsibility and trust are the foundations of our corporate culture.
Geico’s active engagement in the community is written into our corporate DNA, and plays a decisive role in the development of individuals and the improvement of the surrounding environment.
Change and innovation are our starting points for the development of cutting-edge technological solutions.
Geico’s Pardis Innovation Centre is the auto body painting industry’s most important worldwide research and development center. It spearheads all the Group’s efforts, and has received numerous domestic and international awards.
3,600 m2 of area, with over 40 working prototypes that make use of renewable energy technologies.
