The
One-Shot® method
How did we arrive at
the patented
One-Shot® method?
This was born in the 60s.
We took inspiration from Angelo Affinita, founder of SAPA. As a boy he worked with his father, who produced handcrafted fixtures. A beautiful, noble, artistic but decidedly long and laborious work. Each fixture was made by hand.
Angelo Affinita's intuition was to move from artisanal production to mass production of fixtures. Optimize processes. Optimize the product. Less costs and guaranteed quality.
An entire SAPA department dedicated to research and development of unique and patented solutions to make your car components less heavy and less expensive .
Thanks to the strategies of our engineers and the exclusive and patented use of our automations, SAPA has managed to produce a component that is not only less expensive, but also lighter, adapting to the increasingly stringent directives on the weight of cars.
The One-Shot® method and the growing investment in research, has allowed us to double our patents every year, up to 20 patents in 2018.
And with important awards.
