The company invested in new machinery: medium tonnage presses, 320 Tn and 500 Tn and implanted the tube bending and welding line.

90´s Decade

Estampaciones Noroeste, S.A. was acquired by Armstrong Equipment Group, expanding his market in Europe. Their main customers became European car manufacturers like: Volkswagen, Ford and Audi.

2000´s

During the first decade of this century, the company kept growing and expanding its products throughout Europe. In 2002 the company was renamed to Dayco ENSA, acquired by the Italian group.
The EGR tubes evolved to the coolers, much more efficient and complex.
