Glasspec is beginning its 30th year in business, under the same ownership, as a fabricator of fiberglass products. Glasspec is a family owned business. We have pioneered the use of fiberglass products in many fields and regularly introduce new designs solutions for existing applications.
We have the capability to develop prototypes and tooling in house, which results in shorter turn around time for new/custom products as well as competitive pricing.
The principal, Mr. Luis Echenique, has an Industrial Engineering background. He has been involved in fiberglass product design and fabrication for all but two years of his professional life, first as a successful pleasure boat builder in the mid to late sixties and subsequently as partner in a corporation that manufactured institutional and contract furniture and accessories, for seven years, before establishing Glasspec in 1980.
The lessons learned in boat building, during that industry's infancy as it transitioned from wood to fiberglass and all that this made possible, were quickly applied to the development and manufacture of other products whose application, in areas such as correctional and health care facilities Glasspec pioneered.
In addition to our own line of products, we currently manufacture finished products and components for others.
