ArtiFlex Manufacturing announced today the acquisition of Ingemat, headquartered in Spain.  Ingemat is an engineering company offering robotic automation projects for different industrial applications and specializes in turnkey tailor-made projects for the automotive sector. 

Ingemat, established in 1986, has built a distinguished reputation over the years, serving more than 40 OEM’s across over 25 countries.  Renowned as a global leader in hemming technology, the company operates from its offices in Spain and Mexico. 

This strategic acquisition aligns with the ArtiFlex vision to be innovative, problem-solving, partners.  An expanded footprint, engineering prowess (80+ engineers on staff), and an extensive client portfolio between the two companies positions ArtiFlex for future growth in the global automotive market.  Adolfo del Campo, CEO, and Jorge Darpont, Corporate Development Director, will continue to lead Ingemat along with the amazing team of professionals.

“We are thrilled to welcome Ingemat into the ArtiFlex family,” said Erin Hoffmann, CEO of ArtiFlex. “This strategic move not only signifies our commitment to staying at the forefront of technological advancements, but also reinforces our dedication to empowering our customers with the most cutting-edge automation capabilities.”

In conjunction with this acquisition, Victor Picó, the visionary behind Ingemat, who has dedicated his career to pioneering advancements in automation has decided to retire, leaving behind a remarkable legacy of innovation and leadership. Erin Hoffmann stated, “We extend our deepest gratitude and while he will be greatly missed, his contributions will continue to inspire us as we move forward.”

“We are eager to embark on this new chapter with ArtiFlex”, commented Adolfo del Campo. “Our combined capabilities will enable us to deliver even greater value to our customers and strengthen our position as industry leaders.”
