MARCHESINI

1 ) What is the latest news regarding MARCHESINI group? 

Ongoing monitoring of clients’ needs and a firm wish to highlight its technological innovation have made the Marchesini group the world’s leading supplier of original and reliable solutions for pharmaceutical and cosmetics packaging lines.

Marchesini ensures that all of its manufacturing facilities are in Italy in order to guarantee the highest quality products and develops continuously through factory extensions and acquisitions, the most recent of which are the PRB SpA pharmaceutical and cosmetics departments.

On the international front, Marchesini relies on a robust global network of 11 subsidiaries and 20 agents. In France, the new CEO, Marco ZUCCHINI, appointed in May 2010, now manages its subsidiary. New premises and a new information technology network, developed by the group and shared by all countries in real time, help to save time and preserve the quality of our needs analysis, project monitoring and client support. 

2) What is your vision of the packaging industry in the medium term? What changes/developments do you anticipate? 

Client demand for quality, reliability, flexibility, traceability and – more recently – eco-compatibility increases every day. The development of machinery, which is not only more specialised, more complex but also simpler to use, stems from such demand. And we have been integrating highly-automated solutions to respond to this need for a long time now. 

In the last few years, our markets have reached out to the emerging countries who also require supplementary services: installation, training, assistance, and after sales service. So we are strengthening these key facilities across the world. 

3) What will you focus on at EMBALLAGE 2012? Which new products/added value will you exhibit on your stand? 

The latest innovations are obviously part of the picture but showing what we do is not the most important issue. Attending the exhibition means, above all, showing who we are and meeting our clients to listen to what they have to say and to guarantee that we support their needs and development.
