Gestamp, a leading global automotive technology company specialising in the design, development, and production of highly engineered metal components, is spearheading innovation with a sharp focus on safety, light weighting, and sustainability. With India emerging as a key market for auto component suppliers,

Gestamp's advancements in large-format stamping, high-strength materials, and eco-conscious manufacturing are reshaping the mobility landscape. The company's recent showcase at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo unveiled a range of next-generation products designed to meet the evolving needs of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, hybrids, and electric vehicles (EVs) is a testimony.

CRASH-RESISTANT INNOVATIONS

Gestamp continues to raise the bar for vehicle safety with its advanced engineering solutions, including the newly introduced GES-GIGASTAMPING® product line, averred Glyn Jones, Country Manager, Gestamp India. This large-format stamping technology combines multiple body parts into a single, high-strength unit, enhancing crash safety by improving the structural integrity of the vehicle's safety cell. By replacing multiple coldand hot-stamped parts with a single-piece component, Gestamp is streamlining the assembly process while enhancing vehicle durability and crash performance.

Additionally, Gestamp unveiled its Highpertubes (high-strength tubular) components manufactured using advanced hydroforming technology. These play a vital role in occupant protection during collisions by providing enhanced energy absorption and deformation resistance. Designed for both ICE and EV platforms, Highpertubes offer significant improvements in crash performance while optimising material efficiency and reducing vehicle weight.
