INNOVATIVE LAUNDRY SOLUTIONS
GIRBAU S.A. is a family company that has established itself as one of the main international groups in the manufacture of equipment for all types of laundries, regardless of size business sector.
Almost a century ago, Pere Girbau Barboso – a visionary – understood that electricity represented the future. Following in his father’s footsteps, Joan Girbau Vilageliu created in 1960 Girbau, a company specializing in the manufacture of equipment for all types of laundries. Less than six decades later, Girbau has become a worldwide leading company in the sector.
Preserving its family spirit, the group employs today 645 workers across the world. Founded in Vic (Barcelona, Spain), Girbau now enjoys a strong and growing international presence thanks to its extensive distribution and technical support network in more than 100 countries.
Why Trace Software International
In 2015, the group migrated from its old design software to elecworks™ thanks to the continued support of Trace Software International, which oversaw the whole transfer process.
“elecworks™ represented the best option to manage in real time our design process. In our sector, having accurate and actualized data is crucial. Unfortunately, with collaborators based in more than 100 countries, interconnection and communication within our group can be challenging. We needed a tool reactive and interactive enough so we can exchange easily, get real-time information fast and, thus, fully manage research and development”, Marta Prats, Research and Development Manager at Girbau, said.

Customer Satisfaction, Our Top Priority
“Working with Trace Software International is great. Its global exposure allowed our multiple offices – in France and Spain among others – to migrate easily to elecworks™. Internationalization is central to our strategy. However, we need to maintain our company centralized: internal standardization and uniformization are key. With its global presence, Trace Software International has answered our needs perfectly”, Marta Prats added.
With offices and partners worldwide, from Asia to Latin America, Trace Software International can guarantee the best client service to all its users and prospects wherever they are.
