Dive into WP Signalisation’s history, the originator of a new era in road signage and products
“Let’s journey this stretch of road together”
Company Establishment
The parent company, Worldplas, specialized in plastics engineering, is founded by Denis GUNES and achieves ISO 9001 certification.
Expansion Need
Studies conducted by a consultant for Worldplas revealed the necessity to diversify its markets and develop its own products to ensure its sustainability.
New Direction
A new strategic orientation is adopted with the intention of entering the road signage market with its own product ranges. The production of road signs is initiated, and initial results are observable in the current year.
Global Innovation
The first prototypes of the Innov Range, injected with technical resin for police and temporary signage, are developed. This marks the beginning of the Innov Range.
Launch
New production methods are acquired for the launch of the Tradition and Composite ranges. Consequently, patents are filed to protect our ranges and thus continue the story of WP Signalisation.
Establishment of WP Signalisation
The subsidiary WP Signalisation is established to distinguish its road signage activities. It obtains NF and CE approval and certification for its panels from Asquer, the certifying body for road equipment. This marks the start of mass production and product commercialization.
Electronic Development
A computer science doctor joins the company to develop electronic products.
Graphic Design Development
A graphic designer and a digital printing department join the company to create its own designs and printing.
