Neco is a manufacturer of tool of integrated cut inside the group multinational Tivoly. Situated in Elorrio (Biscay), with a surface built of 8.500 square metres and a total area of 15.882 of own terrain, the company explains at present with a staff of 110 people. With presence in more than 50 countries, Neco exports 65% of his production. Héctor Gorosabel, director of the Division of distribution, explains in this interview the last novelties of the company.

Yes, we went to the industrial market (automotive, aeronautics, wind, etc,), combs and rolls for threading by lamination, the industrial distribution and the free service market. Among them, if I had to highlight one now in time of crisis, I would highlight the aeronautical sector, where we are having excellent results and also have some really interesting perspectives. On the other hand, although curiously very distant segments, I would point out the important development that is taking the free service in Spain, along with a tailored offer, which is showing a very positive behavior.

Obviously, the distribution is changing; It evolves to increasingly global markets, disappearing borders and distances disappear. Faced with this situation, Tivoly raised a process of unification of all brands of the group for the simplification of management and communication. Therefore, today we have a single brand, Tivoly, and our client has access to a much broader offer that covers all needs of the different segments of the market.

An offer for the industrial market and production, an offer for the professional market and maintenance and bidding for the construction and free service markets. We also have greater activity in the development of new products and greater capacity for innovation.

Yes, Tivoly is rank 1 Airbus global strategic supplier. At the same time, we are suppliers of companies Tier1 and Tier2 subcontractors. We also work with Embraer. This is to say that our level of experience in quality of product development, technical advice and experience in machining of different types of aeronautical materials such as fibre carbono-composites, titanium, stainless steels having a position of privilege within the aeronautical sector.

It covers all the needs of this sector since it contains tools for machining of metallic components, carbono-composites fiber and machining of aero-structures. We also offer coatings technology with the objective of optimizing yields of tools.

For a side, the condition of manufacturer and, on the other hand, coverage we offer different sectors of very specialized form.
