TRADITION AND INNOVATION
Manufacturas Hepyc was set up in 1947 in Hernani, Guipuzcoa. The new company made precision and cutting tools (hence the name, "Herramientas de Precisión Y Corte"), particularly cores and bearings in high speed steel and special tools.
Over the last 60 years, Hepyc has successfully overcome a series of crises in the cutting tool industry, staff restructuring and changes in the company´s management bodies.
The exceptional service it has always offered customers (industrial supplies and hardware stores), coupled with they loyalty it has enjoyed from its customers have been key factors in making Hepyc one of the leading companies in the cutting tool industry today.
