GALCABES
tapes for the cable industry
OUR STORY Pietro Galliani Spa is a company founded at the beginning of the 1900, and that has been owned by the same family for the entire time. Since its beginning, the company has focused on specializing in niche-markets through a substantial amount of research and development, which led us to manufacture products used in the most technologically demanding industry fields, from electronics to healthcare to aerospace. Today we specialize in the rolling of ultra-thin foils of different non-ferrous alloys and in their transformation, and we continue our path of continuous improvements by focusing on extreme flexibility in service and absolute reliability in terms of product quality and technical solutions.
CABLES Our industrial expertise combined with innovative production techniques has lead us to develop products and solutions aimed at solving the technical needs of cable makers. We provide cable tapes for armouring, shileding, separation and isolation. Our peculiarity lies in the technical support we are able to provide and in the constant pursuit of accomodating any need in terms of materials, dimension and mechanical properties required.

In order to guarantee the performance that we promise on our products, we test our cable tapes for: - elongation - conductivity - tensile stregth - wettability - peeling between layers
We strive to combine our constant technological improvement with an ever-increasing degree of environmental sustainability. Beside being energetically 100% self-sufficent through our hydroelectric power-plant, our laminating technology is highly eco-friendly. We provide different types of glues which improve the mechanical properties of the material in different ways even when used at high temperatures; our study of the reticulation and annealing processes allows us to offer various degrees of ductility on our tapes. Our offer also comprises more than one type of sealable copolymer, with different degrees of sealability aimed at finding the perfect match with the costumer’s production process. We use various kinds of joints or splices, head-to-head, overlapped, with or without thermic-resistant adhesive, along with the possibility of using an ultra-sonic joint on certain tapes capable of increasing the strength of the spliced point up to 75% of the rest of the tape. Our delivery-times are as fast as needed. Client’s urgencies are dealt with within the same week. The packaging we offer, as everything else from us, is personalized according to the clients’ specifications.
