What we do

Metallizing · Restoration · Manufacturing

Vacuum metallizing, restoration and manufacturing for bus bodies, with high-vacuum technology and a factory-grade finish. We work on all the main body lines —Marcopolo, Saldivia, Niccolo, Comil and more— as well as precision equipment for commercial and industrial spaces.

About us

Over 20 years guiding with clarity

It all began more than 20 years ago in San Nicolás de los Arroyos, when Antonio Pereyra founded Gidan, a small company with a clear vision: to deliver high-quality solutions in automotive lighting and precision finishes.

Through hard work, dedication and a genuine passion for the craft, Antonio built a reputation grounded in work done properly. From its earliest days the company specialised in high-vacuum metallizing, an exacting technical process that restores and renews headlights and lamps with results identical to the factory original.

Growth came naturally over the years. The services expanded to include the assembly and sale of headlights and lamps, bumper repair and sales, the manufacture and repair of fibreglass mirror arms, and the metallizing of curved and parabolic safety mirrors — serving not only the automotive sector but also commercial and industrial spaces that depend on high-precision equipment.

With that growth came a new name as well: Faros de los Arroyos, the identity that today stands for everything built over two decades.

Twenty years in the trade taught us that behind every job there is a customer placing their trust in us. That is why we pair specialised technology with the close, personal service that only experience can give.

Today we are a reference point in San Nicolás de los Arroyos and the surrounding region, with a committed team, proven processes and the assurance of people who have been doing this well for more than 20 years.

Because quality is no accident — it is the result of years of dedication.
