History

Decades have passed since our foundation. We have grown, we have changed.

One thing has always remained the same: the passion for what we do.

In 1960 Renato Della Torre founded Diamante, operating in the galvanic industry serving the textile industry. Investments in technologically advanced equipment and machinery for mechanical engraving led the company to diversify its offer: SIMEC – Società Incisioni MECcaniche – was founded.

In the mid-seventies, taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the industrial developments in the world of packaging, the company converted its core business focusing on the production and mechanical engraving of rollers for flexography. It also began to operate in embossing: tissue was skyrocketing in the 1980s.

In 1987 the doors opened to the second Della Torre generation and the company introduced laser engraved ceramic anilox, becoming a true pioneer of this industry. The success generated by the new technology led to the opening of the Montefino branch, dedicated to this process.

The success of portfolio diversification policy, together with the consolidation of historical products, support a progressive and inexorable growth in structural and market terms.

The beginning of the 21st century is marked by the strengthening of R&D activities through collaborations with companies specialized in specific sectors. Shareholdings, joint ventures and direct investments gave birth to SIMEC GROUP: the name reflects the desire to generate value along the supply chain, through collaboration and process integration. 

Lifecycle Solutions like cleaning systems, designed to extend the operating life of cylinders and maximize their performance, were launched.

Thinking 4.0 we conceived a new business model allowing to change our approach to the market: no longer reactive, but proactive. Together with the structural growth, we have been investing in a technological revolution: factories are becoming lean and smart, management is being digitalized through Simec Digital Background, an internally developed software meant to analyse and anticipate customers’ needs worldwide.

The future has already taken its first steps, it is growing up. Our future is the third generation. It is a blank page asking to be written. It is constantly changing. It is our vision coming real. What are we going to do? We will keep on investing and innovating. We will think outside the box, we will monitor, we will launch new products, we will offer solutions, we will be agents of change.

We will put people first. We will act in a sustainable way. We will give young people a chance, we will welcome their point of view while we will continue to take advice from the experienced one. If we fall, we will know how to get back up. Where others see problems, we see opportunities; we will learn from mistakes, we will learn new ways. We will never lose the connection with our origins; we will use a compass to find new directions and we will always be able to find the right way thanks to the teachings of those before us that will ever remain our beacon.
