About Us

Exella is a company present today in Europe and Asia, specializing in the production of metal components for eyewear, jewelry, micromechanics, electronics, watchmaking, musical instruments, modeling, fashion, and design using unconventional technologies.
Founded in Italy from a research project in 1987, it has aimed from the beginning to develop alternative solutions to produce small metal parts even in very limited quantities and with extremely low mold or startup costs.
Today the group has 120 employees distributed across 4 locations in Europe and 2 in Asia.

FOR OVER 30 YEARS...

The project started in 1987, with a small laboratory in Italy, in the province of Lucca. By 1990, the first production facility already had over 40 employees and an average production of 10,000 semi-finished products per day.
In 1997, pilot projects were launched in South Korea (closed the following year), in China, and in Romania. In 1998, the production site in China was inaugurated, in the Jinshan District of Shanghai, and the following year the factory in Romania, in Cluj Napoca.
Since 2008, commercial offices have been operational in Italy in Padua, in France in Paris, and in Spain in Barcelona.
In 2019, a pilot unit was opened in Vietnam, in Ho Chi Minh City, while 2020 saw the inauguration of the new facility in Romania in Cluj Napoca.

ALTERNATIVE TECHNOLOGIES

The main technologies developed are chemical photo-etching, lost-wax microcasting, electroforming, and cataphoresis, supported by rapid prototyping systems in stereolithography.
Production systems that are substantially different from each other, but share the ability to replicate complex metal components even in small series, without costly investments or long waiting times.
From the very beginning, the company has paid particular attention to environmental impact issues, from recycling to the biodegradability of raw materials to packaging.

CERTIFICATIONS

Every production batch, even the smallest, follows a precise supply chain and the composition and origin of the raw material can always be certified, as well as the absence of heavy metals, solvents, or protective oils.
The new facility for the European market, in Romania, is obtaining ISO 9001 certification for quality management, ISO/IEC 27001 for information security management systems, and ISO 14001 for environmental management systems.
