In recent years, VED Srl, through its Business Unit GPE (Gasket Production Engineering), has undergone a significant transformation, evolving from a manufacturer of industrial gaskets to a provider of engineered solutions for the industry. This growth path has been made possible thanks to the experience gained over time and the synergy developed with TMS, another Business Unit of VED specialising in on-site mechanical maintenance.
This transformation has allowed GPE to differentiate itself in the market, no longer limiting its role to the supply of sealing elements but offering a comprehensive service that integrates design, consulting, and technical assistance. This evolution has positioned GPE as a strategic partner for various industries, particularly in the Oil & Gas, Power Generation, Chemical, and Petrochemical sectors.
GPE’s Expertise and Collaboration with TMS
GPE’s growth has been strongly influenced by its interaction with TMS (Technical Maintenance Services), a Business Unit of VED that specialises in on-site mechanical maintenance. Through this collaboration, GPE has developed a more industry-oriented approach, deeply understanding the challenges related to sealing and maintaining complex machinery.
This synergy has optimized not only the design and production of gaskets but also enabled GPE to offer integrated solutions that enhance operational performance and reduce maintenance costs for customers.
The field experience gained alongside TMS allowed GPE to gain a thorough understanding of the actual operating conditions of gaskets and to develop innovative products able to meet the real needs of the industry.
GPE’s Engineered Solutions: Gaskets and Maintenance Services
One of the most representative examples of GPE’s innovative approach is its engineered plug and gasket solution for air coolers. This product was developed to address sealing and maintenance challenges in industrial cooling systems, significantly reducing leakage risks and optimising maintenance intervention times.
By combining high-performance materials with a design tailored to the most demanding industrial applications, GPE ensures greater efficiency, durability, and ease of use, making maintenance procedures faster and more reliable.
A More Engineered Future for GPE
GPE’s transformation from a gasket manufacturer to an engineered solutions provider is the result of a strategic path based on innovation, field experience, and collaboration with TMS.
This evolution has made GPE a trusted partner for industries that require not just gaskets but customised solutions to enhance the reliability and safety of their plants. Thanks to continuous research and development, GPE will continue to expand its portfolio of integrated solutions, further strengthening its position in the global industrial sealing market.
