Marchesini Group designs and builds customised machines and lines for the packaging of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Founded in Pianoro thanks to the intuition of Massimo Marchesini, who built his first cartoner in a garage in 1974, with the aid of mergers and acquisitions in the sector, over the years Marchesini Group has gradually grown from a local enterprise to a multinational. With a turnover of 600 million  and a workforce of almost 3,000 at its Italian and foreign locations, Marchesini Group is a leading player in the “Packaging Valley” of Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region and one of the global top four in the automatic pharmaceuticals and cosmetics machinery sector.
