In the Italian and Marche regional industrial landscape—where male presence has traditionally dominated sectors such as automotive and plastic injection molding—our company stands out for a remarkable characteristic: 40% of our workforce is made up of women, with an average age of 45, bringing experience, expertise, and solid professionalism.
In a company that leads in the design and injection molding of thermoplastic materials for the automotive and electrotechnical sectors, with over 40 years of history, this figure is no coincidence. It is the result of a clear corporate philosophy that recognizes women as a strategic asset essential to growth and innovation.
At the helm of Techpol is also a woman, mother of two children, who proves every day that it is possible to balance family responsibilities and a leadership role in an industrial company. Her presence is a concrete example of female leadership, capable of inspiring and paving the way for other professionals.
Female presence at Techpol is not only significant in numbers, but also represents a qualified driving force holding positions of responsibility in fields traditionally considered male-dominated. The “Assembly” department is the clearest example: composed almost entirely of women, many of whom hold management positions such as shift leader and department head, demonstrating both technical competence and leadership skills.
A particularly noteworthy case comes from the molding department, where a young professional under 30 is building her career as a shift leader. Her story perfectly embodies Techpol’s approach to female empowerment: not only has she achieved a position of responsibility at a young age, but she has also actively promoted the inclusion and training of other women on her team.
This peer-to-peer approach, where women train other women, creates a virtuous cycle of professional growth and knowledge sharing that enriches the entire organization.
Techpol’s commitment to valuing female talent doesn’t stop here. The company plans to include more women in highly specialized areas such as the “Robotics Division” and mold changing, roles that demand advanced technical skills and represent the future of Industry 4.0.
This strategy clearly shows that Techpol does not view female presence as a matter of quotas, but rather as a strategic investment to stay competitive in an ever-evolving marke
