Simpla’s expertise meets the industrial strength of the LAPI Group to deliver precise, custom and high-performance solutions

For more than 60 years, Simpla has been a benchmark in transparent thermoforming and professional plastic processing. Founded in 1956 with a craftsmanship-driven approach focused on quality and precision, the company has evolved into a modern industrial partner. 
Today, through its integration into the LAPI Group, Simpla expands its production capabilities, technological resources and overall reliability, offering customers even more complete, innovative and competitive solutions. 

Our specialization in transparent thermoforming sets us apart on the market. We produce components in plexiglass, PETG, PMMA and polycarbonate featuring high optical transparency, uniform surfaces and exceptional finishing quality. Thanks to advanced production systems, we manufacture complex elements that combine aesthetics, strength and precision, ideal for applications where visual performance is essential. 

The value of transparent thermoforming

Clarity, precision and technical performance for high-end applications

Transparent thermoforming requires advanced expertise and dedicated technologies. Each phase — heating, forming, cooling and finishing — must be precisely controlled to avoid distortion, optical defects or surface irregularities. 

Thanks to decades of experience and the integration with LAPI, Simpla guarantees: 

  • optical uniformity with no distortions 
  • high clarity and brilliance 
  • impact and UV resistance 
  • dimensional stability, even on large parts 
  • 5-axis CNC machining for complex geometries 

 

These features make transparent thermoforming ideal for visual communication, medical devices, industrial applications, marine and aviation components, where aesthetics and functionality must coexist.

Premium materials and integrated technologies

Plexiglass, polycarbonate and engineered polymers for every application

We select transparent materials and engineered polymers that deliver superior performance in terms of durability, visual quality and structural integrity. Our expertise includes: 

  • PMMA (plexiglass) – exceptional transparency and refined aesthetics 
  • PETG – flexibility, impact resistance and excellent formability 
  • Polycarbonate – superior mechanical strength and durability 
  • ABS, PVC and technical polymers – ideal for structural components 

All materials can be processed using: 

  • vacuum thermoforming 
  • laser cutting and 5-axis CNC milling 
  • bending and controlled thermo-curving 
  • professional bonding techniques 
  • customized finishing (aesthetic or functional)

Applications: from displays to technical protective covers

Thanks to material versatility and precise processing, Simpla manufactures components for a wide range of industries: 

  • retail displays, signage and visual communication systems 
  • transparent covers and safety shields for machinery and devices 
  • interior design and technical furniture elements 
  • marine and aviation components requiring high resistance 
  • control shields, domes, optical panels and protective housings 
  • communication and information systems for professional environments 

Every component is engineered to be visually flawless, resistant over time and fully integrable into the customer’s systems.  

Joining the LAPI Group: an industrial network that expands possibilities

Becoming part of the LAPI Group means uniting two complementary centers of excellence: 

  • Simpla, specialized in transparent thermoforming and high-precision plastic processing
