Core offering

GPN is a B2B custom manufacturer producing precision extrusion tools from martensitic steel, complete plastic extrusion production lines, structural construction elements, and electrical switchboards for the plastic extrusion industry. Annual production capacity reaches up to 600 complete tools and 240 machine equipment units, with custom manufacturing executed to customer drawings and specifications.

Product overview

GPN is a manufacturing network specializing in mechanical production of tools, machines, and structural elements for the plastic extrusion industry. The core products include tools (forms) made from martensitic steel for profile extrusion, and complete production lines for manufacturing window profiles, food films, and technical profiles. These are supported by construction elements and, since 2024, electrical switchboard assembly for extruders. The newest addition is pipe-heads (extrusion heads for round plastic products like pipes) launched in October 2024, expanding the product portfolio with precision-machined components. The company operates three key facilities: toolshop (nástrojárna), machine workshop (strojírna), and electrical switchboard department, all serving the extrusion technology market.

Partnerships

Six partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• Davis-StandardcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 1 January 2025Global owner of GPN since 2023. Davis-Standard decided in summer 2025 that the Czech GPN facility would become the main European production center for pipe-heads (extrusion heads for round plastic products). Part of the Davis-Standard group providing comprehensive extrusion solutions.
• Battenfeld CincinnaticoreChannel Partner/ Reseller/ Distributor · 1 January 2024Sister company within the group. GPN assembles electrical control cabinets for Battenfeld Cincinnati extruders and extrusion lines for round profiles. GPN provides complete installation of low-voltage electrical cabinets according to drawings and customer specifications, including mechanical component mounting, wiring, cabling, and preparation of power and control circuits for extruder control.
• Extrusion Technology GroupcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 1 January 2023GPN was part of Extrusion Technology Group until Davis-Standard became new owner in 2023.
• Exelliq HoldingcoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerExelliq is a leading global supplier of extrusion lines, tools, and turnkey equipment for plastic profile extrusion. GPN is part of Exelliq holding, combining expertise across European and US facilities. Exelliq provides development, design, manufacturing, and process optimization from recipe development to complete extrusion lines.
• Střední škola Trhové SvinyminorOthersEducational partnership with local secondary school. GPN welcomed first two apprentices from the electrician program to gain practical experience in electrical cabinet manufacturing department. Students learned to read technical drawings and assemble cabinets under guidance of GPN employees Lukáš Wolmuth and Radoslav Siuda.
• Austrian vocational schoolsminorOthersInternational cooperation with Austrian vocational schools. Apprentices from Austria studying mechatronics joined GPN for two-week practical training, participating in assembly of production lines and electrical installation work.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Coperion (Herbold Meckesheim): Global manufacturer of compounding and extrusion systems, including components for plastics processing. Comparable to GPN at the system level for plastic profile and pipe extrusion, though focused on compounding/extrusion lines rather than tooling.
• Leistritz Extrusionstechnik: German manufacturer of extrusion lines and compounding systems, including for pipe and profile applications. Adjacent peer to GPN at the system level, serving similar end-customers with complete extrusion solutions.
• Davis-Standard: Global owner of GPN since 2023 and the world's largest extrusion technology provider. Davis-Standard supplies complete extrusion systems and conversion equipment worldwide, overlapping with GPN's tooling and pipe-heads offerings at a system level rather than as a dedicated toolmaker.
• Reifenhäuser Group: German manufacturer of extrusion lines for films, sheets and profiles. Reifenhäuser sells into the same window/door profile, food film and technical profile end-markets that GPN's tooling supports, making it a comparable demand-side peer.
• KraussMaffei: German-headquartered manufacturer of extrusion, injection molding and compounding machinery. KraussMaffei competes with the broader Davis-Standard/Exelliq group that GPN belongs to and serves overlapping plastic-profile and pipe customers.

Emerging players

• Zechner Tools: Austrian toolmaker for plastic profile extrusion. Similar size and product focus to GPN's toolshop, making it a closely comparable regional peer for custom extrusion tooling.
• Theysohn Kunststoff GmbH: Austrian competitor in extrusion tooling and downstream equipment. Comparable to GPN as a Central European extrusion toolmaker serving window/door profile and pipe customers, with similar manufacturing technology profile.
• Technoplast (TP Group / Italian extrusion tooling): Italian precision toolmaker specializing in extrusion dies and calibration equipment for plastic profiles. Direct comparability to GPN's toolshop product line, serving the same European window/door and technical profile OEMs.

Direct peers

• Battenfeld Cincinnati: Sister company within the Davis-Standard/Exelliq group and GPN's primary internal customer. Battenfeld Cincinnati manufactures extruders and complete extrusion lines for round profiles; GPN supplies pipe-heads and electrical switchboards directly to it, making them tightly interlinked operational peers.

Others

• Greiner Extrusion (Greiner AG): Original owner of the Trhové Sviny factory before 2023. Greiner continues to operate in extrusion technology, historically adjacent to GPN's toolmaking focus and an indirect peer through overlapping customer relationships in profile extrusion.
