Geico is a Global Supplier for the turnkey supply of paint plants/departments for major automakers worldwide.
Its origins go back to the Carrier-Drysys group founded in 1908.
The Italian division, called Drysys Equipment, was born from a joint venture with Neri & Mandelli, an engineering company founded in 1963 in Milan by Iingegner Giuseppe Neri and his friend Mandelli.
The aftermath of the oil crisis, terrorism and the almost total block of investment in the target sector led to the near closure of the division in 1976 when Iingegner Giuseppe Neri proposed to acquire the majority of the company in a management-buy-out operation, also changing the company’s name to Geico S.p.A. The spirit of this intervention, which is based on safeguarding the business and the well-being of its stakeholders, forms the value base of the family, which over time has undertaken a series of financial and industrial operations to ensure the company’s innovative and socially responsible existence.
Today Geico, owned by the Arabnia-Neri family, is considered one of the most advanced companies in the automotive sector on a global scale, both at the technological and human level, because it has always had as its ultimate goal, the development and continuity of the company in the interest of its stakeholders.
Respect and a sense of responsibility towards people and the environment, gratitude towards what is received from inside and outside the company, and the courage to face complex situations are the values that accompany its community made up of people of the highest professional and ethical level.
