Twins Group companies, particularly those that have their headquarters in Italy, constantly invest in research and new technology to improve service, to create more and more efficient economies of scale and to produce at more and more sustainable financial and environmental costs.
The heart of this activity resides in the planning department, where new materials and molds are developed using state-of-the-art 3D software such as CATIA V5. The production is mainly met by the associated companies, with only a small percentage entrusted to external companies. The internal manufacturing relies on very modern production methods, exploiting vanguard solutions, such as raw materials (plastic) distribution systems with ducting directly connected to outdoor silos, or twin-injection presses to create articles made of two different integrated materials, or made of two different colors. The molding of the plastic products is made by traditional injection molding, blowing or gas assisted.
The gradual rise, year after year, of automation has proven fundamental: today, machinery almost completely replace manual labour. The innovation promoted by the Group in this direction has led to the acquisition of an anthropomorphic polyfunctional robot currently employed for the production of armrests. Research and new technology acquired in the past few years has given extraordinary results such as the development of new high performance materials: the FLEX PU, with superior elasticity and capacity characteristics for the production of chairs, and the SPF, or new solutions such as our polycarbonate transparent chairs. A revolutionary shiny material for office chairs is also in the final testing stages. All Twins Group company products are tested in an in house laboratory to guarantee the highest technical, physical and safety standards and to ensure superior endurance and performance of all products.

Twins Group does not overlook environmental issues: each material is eco-compatible certified and many specialized teams work to keep manufacturing emissions strictly in check. Special attention is devoted to clean, renewable energies: Ivars SpA buildings, for example, exploit for part of their needs a hydroelectric system fully owned by the company in its original site of Vestone in Val Sabbia, Brescia, Italy. All Twins Group companies productions are certified Vision ISO: 9001.
