Creativity: Falpaco believes it is an essential element in industrial subcontracting
The plastics and rubber industry offers a world of opportunities. But if we want to take full advantage of its potential, we must use our creativity. It didn’t take Falpaco, a partner of Groupe Hyperforme, long to understand this concept.
Today we’ll share more with you about the vision of an industrial subcontractor who carved out a unique position in the plastics and rubber parts manufacturing sector in Quebec in a bold and creative manner.
Controlling one’s materials
Claude Robichaud is a talented entrepreneur, but he is first and foremost a passionate individual. This becomes evident when he discusses how he came to found a factory that specializes in plastic composite molding.
“I believe that an industrial subcontractor may feel more comfortable working with certain materials. For me, it is plastic and rubber. When we know how to use them properly, there is no limit to what can be created,” explains the CEO of Falpaco.
This becomes evident during an on-site visit. Thousands of different pieces are manufactured within the factory walls of this Groupe Hyperforme partner. And that’s exactly what motivates the Falpaco team – putting their boldness and creativity to the test.
Implementing a tailored customer experience In order to supply
In order to supply custom-made plastic and rubber parts, it is necessary to continually adapt to the client’s requirements, even if they may sometimes include special requests.
A few examples include:
- More complex technical specifications
- More limited budgets
- Shorter timeframes
In order to successfully complete a project while respecting all the client’s requirements, Falpaco sees itself more as a partner than just a supplier.
Choosing the Win/Win/Win model
In order to reach a level of excellence in the industrial subcontracting sector, you have to know how to choose the right clients. Mr. Robichaud opts for the Win/Win/Win model.
- Win/Win: Everyone wins.
- Win/Win/Win: Everyone wins, and, in addition, it enables us to build something together that we would not have created otherwise.
Mr. Robichaud seeks out partners with a creative flair whose values are similar to those of Falpaco.
“At Falpaco, there are no small or large clients. There are partners who are all called upon to become greater,” explains this Groupe Hyperforme partner.
It is one of the reasons why the Falpaco team invests in each business relationship it begins.
Creating new partnerships
A good partnership is worth its weight in gold, and Falpaco firmly believes in this. With this vision, the competition leaves very little room for rivalry in the firm’s business vision.
“I have partners who do exactly the same thing as me, others who complement my services, and still others with whom I share equipment and resources. There is nothing stopping us from building solid and profitable strategic alliances. The goal is always to help each other so that we can expand the market,” explains Claude Robichaud.
What’s more, this is exactly the role a business cluster like Groupe Hyperforme is able to assume. It can call upon more resources and standardize procedures.
According to Claude Robichaud, one must not be afraid to innovate and see things from a different perspective.
