Today
Over the past few years, Gruppo DP has dedicated its energies to developing the OEM Private Label sector on the one hand, openly competing with its Asian counterparts, while also improving the specialisation of its range of fishing lines even more; for example with a new product line made from PE braiding and conical lines.
Currently, the company’s core business is centred around the fishing line sector for sport and commercial use as well as monofilaments for gardening and agricultural use.
