What G-iron does

G-iron is an Italian engineering company founded in 2001 and headquartered in Arezzo, specializing in the design, manufacture, installation, testing, and certification of low-frequency electromagnetic field (EMF) shielding systems covering the 0 Hz to 1 GHz range. The company sells proprietary metallic shielding materials and solutions that address regulatory compliance (Italian DPCM 8/7/2003, D.LGS. 81/08, ICNIRP, CEI EN 61000-4-8) and infrastructure protection across sectors including healthcare (Ospedale di Udine, San Raffaele, Galeazzi), data centers (Milan, Etisalat Abu Dhabi), airports (Fiumicino, Oslo, Bologna), research facilities (Sherbrooke quantum lab, Human Technopole Milano), education (Pisa elementary school), hospitality, and industrial clients.

The product platform is structured around a core materials family — G-iron ArmoFlex (flexible high-permeability fabric achieving up to 97% attenuation in two layers), G-iron MRI (1mm-thick copper/aluminum coating combining magnetic confinement and Faraday cage, patented 2023), G-iron AFH (modular aluminum alloy + ArmoFlex layered panels), and G-iron Pipe (underground cable shielding) — complemented by engineered sub-products (shielded cable trays, G-iron BG junction-pit screens, Cabine Zero D.P.A. prefabricated transformer cabins) and application-specific service offerings for data centers, MRI rooms, scientific microscopes, and electric vehicles. All design, prototyping, and certification occur in-house in a ~300 mq testing laboratory capable of generating fields up to 100 kHz at ~2000 A, supported by R&D collaborations with Centro Sviluppo Materiali (RINA Group), I.N.F.N. Napoli, and I.N.Ri.M. Torino.

G-iron operates a project-based, direct enterprise sales motion with custom quotations, 3D EMF simulation (EFC400 / Narda STS) as a pre-sales tool, on-site installation by company-trained personnel, certified post-installation measurement, and 20-year result guarantees. Pricing is bespoke per project and not publicly disclosed. The company maintains primary operations in Italy with international installations in Norway, Finland, Canada, and the UAE, pursuing expansion through partners such as SDI Canada (Toronto) and via technical collaborations with industrial players such as ABB Oy Helsinki.
