Group’s ‘Masterplan’
▲ ▲ The Acciaierie di Verona site
PITTINI Group, a steel company
producing long products for the building
sector and mechanical industry, has
presented an industrial plan called
‘Masterplan’ at Acciaierie di Verona SpA.
Pittini Group’s plants are located in Italy,
Austria and Slovenia, their products being
sold in more than 50 different markets.
More than 1,700 people are employed in
17 production sites, with a total capacity
amounting to more than three million
tons of steel per year. In 2016, turnover
exceeded €1bn.
Active since the beginning of the 20th
century, the productive plant located in
Verona, Italy, includes a steel mill, a wire
rod mill, a rebar mill and a cold rolling
section.
The industrial ‘Masterplan’ entails a great
technological upgrade of the production
plants in order to enhance the quality of
products. Therefore, the project is going
to imply a requalification of infrastructure
and plants, thus improving the working
environment for the benefit of all.
The investment will allow Pittini Group
to broaden and strengthen its position
within the sector of long steel products
in Italy and especially on foreign markets,
widening the range of products offered.
Federico Pittini, president of FIN FER
SpA – Pittini Group’s holding company
– said: “Pittini Group’s acquisition of the
plant located in Verona is a milestone
in our company’s growth process. A
relaunch plan has been carried out in
order to allow the plant in Verona to be
competitive on the steel market and
to specialise in the production of high
quality goods.
“In recent years markets have become
more and more demanding, which is why
a plant development and technological
upgrade project is needed in order to
meet the quality needs expressed by the
customers. Such an investment plan will
allow Acciaierie di Verona to open up to
new opportunities on foreign markets.
“The industrial ‘Masterplan’ carried out in
Verona is a major strategic move for the
future of our group and will spark off an
additional growth within the sector of
long steel products, thus widening the
range of goods offered on the market.”
