Marchesini Group

Located in the heart of Bologna's Packaging Valley, Marchesini Group is a leading supplier of complete packaging lines and machines. The uniqueness and reliability of the Group's products have risen it up to the leading position it now enjoys.

Founded in 1974 in Pianoro (Bologna), where the headquarters is still located today, Marchesini has evolved over the years into a group that, through acquisitions and partnership agreements with complementary businesses of the main industry, is able to handle the entire packaging process, up as well as downstream, for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries.

Thanks to its unfailing commitment to innovation, Marchesini Group has successfully captured a leading role in Italy and internationally: today, over 87% of group revenues are generated by exports, mainly in Europe and United States.

Despite the group is still enhancing its sales and service networks around the world, what truly distinguishes Marchesini Group is its 100% Italian based production, which ensures top product quality as well as enhancing its relationship with local supportive industries.

Most of the Group's production - approximately 87% - is devoted to the pharmaceutical industry, where Marchesini is a major point of reference, not only for multinational enterprises (including GSK, Novartis, Wyeth, BMS, and Pfizer), but also for small and medium-sized businesses, companies working in generics and pharmaceutical contracting business.
The remaining 15% of production concerns the cosmetics industry, where Marchesini offers innovative cosmetic packaging solutions tailor-made for top level clients, such as L'Oréal, Procter&Gamble, Dior Parfum, Guerlain Paris, and Yves Saint Laurent Beauté.
