Components for next-generation sustainable mobility applications are at the centre of a new partnership between OMR Automotive and CPC, focused on the development and production of advanced structural solutions. The collaboration brings together two Italian industrial players with complementary expertise in automotive engineering, manufacturing and high-complexity component development.
Under the partnership, OMR Automotive will manufacture structural components for innovative projects developed by CPC in the e-mobility sector. According to the companies, the parts involved require high standards in terms of quality, dimensional precision and reliability, with a direct impact on the performance, safety and efficiency of new vehicle technology platforms.
The agreement comes at a time when the automotive industry is accelerating the transition towards lighter, more efficient and increasingly electrified architectures. In this context, structural components are becoming a key engineering area, as vehicle platforms must combine mechanical performance, weight optimisation, production repeatability and compatibility with advanced propulsion systems.
For electric mobility, the role of structural components is particularly relevant. Battery-electric and hybrid platforms introduce specific constraints related to mass distribution, crash management, thermal integration and packaging. This requires suppliers to develop components capable of supporting increasingly complex vehicle architectures while maintaining industrial scalability and consistent quality standards.
OMR Automotive, one of Italy’s main industrial groups specialised in the design and production of automotive structural components, brings to the partnership its manufacturing know-how and international experience with major vehicle manufacturers. CPC, meanwhile, is active in the development of advanced technologies and innovative components for the automotive sector and for new sustainable mobility applications.
Marco Bonometti, President of OMR Group, described the transition towards electric and sustainable mobility as “one of the most important industrial challenges of our time”, adding that it requires multidisciplinary expertise, continuous investment in innovation and cooperation between companies with shared industrial standards.
Sebastiano Rio, CEO of CPC, said the partnership with OMR Automotive confirms the value of collaborations between Italian companies able to combine innovation, engineering capability and industrial vision. He added that the two companies are working together on advanced technology solutions for sustainable mobility, with the aim of strengthening the competitiveness of Italian manufacturing on international markets.
Beyond the individual projects, the partnership reflects a broader trend in the automotive supply chain: the increasing integration between component manufacturers, engineering companies and technology developers. As electrification progresses, suppliers are being asked not only to deliver parts, but to contribute to platform-level performance, production efficiency and long-term vehicle reliability.
For the Italian automotive industry, the collaboration between OMR Automotive and CPC highlights the role of specialised manufacturing in the e-mobility transition. Advanced structural components remain a critical layer of innovation, particularly as vehicle makers seek lighter architectures, improved safety performance and more efficient production processes for electrified platforms.
