RGF GROUP

What RGF GROUP does

RGF GROUP is a privately-held French plastic injection moulding group founded in 1998, headquartered in Pratz (Jura), with 101-250 employees operating four production sites: three in France (Pratz headquarters / RGF Plastique, Ruy / PlasticAlpes, Eybens / Charvet mould unit) and one in Oradea, Romania (Plastic Crisana). The group designs and produces moulds, technical plastic parts, and sub-assemblies, running a fleet of 70 single and two-material presses (20-350 tonnes) in France plus 13 presses (50-300 tonnes) in Romania, supported by 3 design offices equipped with CAD and rheology software. It processes a wide range of technical thermoplastics and technopolymers (HDPE, LDPE, PP, PS, PMMA, ABS, ABS/PC, PVC, POM, SEBS, SBS, PUR, PC, PBT, PA, PPA, PEI, PSU, LCP, PEEK) with various reinforcements, and integrates 3- and 6-axis robotic automation for assembly.

The group serves two primary customer segments: a Health sector vertical producing clean products for microbiological analysis and in vitro medical devices, and a broad Industry vertical covering automotive, construction, home automation, electricity, home appliances, watchmaking, sport and leisure, and industrial equipment. Mould and process design is handled internally through the Charvet unit, while automated assembly lines support finished sub-assemblies. RGF is positioned as a 'human-scale' industrial SME that combines group-level capacity with the responsiveness of a smaller supplier, selling via direct enterprise engagement, international shipping to more than 20 countries, and trade-show presence.

Revenue is generated through custom project-based manufacturing contracts for medium and large production runs, with quotes tailored to tool design, materials, and volume requirements; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The group holds ISO 9001:2015 certification across all sites and ISO 14001 at Plastic Crisana, and was awarded the inaugural European MORE label in 2025 for circular-economy/recycled-plastic integration. Ownership is private with no parent, holding company, or external institutional investor identified beyond a 2017 Capital Transmission funding entry of undisclosed size.
