About Marchesini Group
Marchesini Group S.p.A., headquartered in Pianoro near Bologna, develops and manufactures packaging machines and complete packaging lines for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. The portfolio includes process machines such as vacuum turbo-emulsifiers and mixer/melters, aseptic and inspection equipment (e.g. washing & sterilizing, vial and syringe filling, ampoule filling, containment with RABS or isolators, container inspection and leak test), primary packaging (blister, tablet counters, bottle, jar and tube filling, stickpack/sachet/strip form-fill-seal) as well as secondary packaging through to palletizing, including robotics solutions, cartoning, serialization and tray forming. The robotic cells are developed in-house; customized solutions such as the tray packaging line for CIT Pharma are delivered as single-source offerings. After the sale, services such as revamping, spare parts, predictive maintenance, remote support and training complement the offering. Alignment with international standards, FDA requirements and GMP.
