Thirty-five years after its foundation, UNIGOM is entering a new phase in its industrial journey, consolidating an organizational model based on consistency, technical expertise and long-term vision. This evolution is now reflected in a stronger structure and an increasingly well-defined positioning in European markets. This milestone does not represent a celebration, but rather the natural development of an identity built over time within an increasingly selective and advanced aftermarket environment.
In 1987, the idea was born to bring together companies specialized in the production of rubber and rubber-metal components for the automotive sector. Since 1991, S.D.A. s.a.s., owned by the Palmitessa brothers, has led the development of the UNIGOM brand, transforming the original initiative into a structured organizational model based on controlled quality, process integration and selective distribution.
From the earliest stages of development, UNIGOM based its growth on a clear principle: creating value for independent distribution and professional operators by ensuring consistent and verifiable quality standards, supply continuity and organizational coherence.
The expansion of the product range has been central to the company’s growth strategy. The integration of the Deltagom and Ages brands further strengthened the product portfolio, introducing new expertise in suspension arms and consolidating its presence in engine, chassis and suspension system components. Among the most representative products in the UNIGOM catalogue are engine mounts, strut mounts, cooling hoses and turbo hoses. In these segments, the company has built a reputation based on high-quality standards and near-zero return rates.
Today, the catalogue includes over 10,500 part numbers, covering 98% of the European vehicle fleet.
Production of rubber and rubber-metal components takes place in areas with a strong industrial tradition, between Turin and Brescia, where solid know-how in rubber processing and high-precision mold design is concentrated. UNIGOM ensures structured production processes compliant with the most stringent standards, developing components aligned with the technical evolution of next-generation vehicles, increasingly demanding in terms of driving comfort, dynamic stability and vibration control.
The concept of “First Choice” represents not merely a brand claim, but an operational commitment to the supply chain. For installers and distributors, it means relying on consistent quality standards and components whose reliability is verified daily in professional use.
In a scenario marked by electrification, new hybrid platforms and regulatory evolution, the company develops components capable of reducing vibration and noise, supporting higher dynamic loads, ensuring compatibility with internal combustion, hybrid and electric powertrains, and meeting the most up-to-date technical standards.
Over the years, alongside expanding product depth, the company has strengthened its technical expertise and reinforced its logistics infrastructure.
Today, UNIGOM operates 9,000 sqm of warehouse space within a total area of 19,000 sqm, organized with advanced stock management and traceability systems to support efficient and timely distribution across major European markets.
Corporate management is supported by a Quality Management System compliant with ISO 9001:2015, confirming a method-based approach focused on process control and continuous improvement.
UNIGOM operates exclusively with qualified distributors, favoring stable and transparent collaborations.
A model oriented toward mutual growth and market continuity, naturally evolving into the BE U project, which strengthens brand identity and territorial positioning.
This anniversary marks an important step in a journey built on strategic consistency, organizational rigor and targeted investments. UNIGOM continues to focus on strengthening its presence in European markets, developing solutions for new technological platforms, consolidating distribution partnerships and enhancing logistics and digital evolution in support of the supply chain.
“Thirty-five years are not just a milestone; they confirm an industrial model capable of evolving without losing consistency. Unigom interprets its role within the supply chain with rigor, adopting high standards of quality, service and professional collaboration. Our objective is to remain a reliable reference point for partner distributors, offering solutions aligned with vehicle evolution and ensuring operational stability.”
— Carlo Palmitessa, General Manager UNIGOM
“In a market where reliability and industrial vision have become decisive, the path built over more than thirty-five years has strengthened a clear conviction: relationships open markets, the model allows you to navigate them, consistency earns respect. On these foundations, Unigom will continue to evolve, aiming to strengthen its role within the supply chain and support partners in an increasingly selective, dynamic and competitive aftermarket.”
