Italian engineering, global impact: Tapematic’s vision for the future of surface finishing
In today’s competitive manufacturing landscape, technology is not only a matter of production efficiency but also of global positioning. Italian companies have long been celebrated for their craftsmanship and precision, but the challenge is to scale these values for international markets. Tapematic, based in Ornago near Milan, exemplifies how an Italian industrial player can translate local expertise into worldwide influence through innovation in surface treatment and coating systems.
A global reference born from local expertise
For over five decades, Tapematic has combined engineering know-how with a constant pursuit of innovation. Its modular PST Line II has become a benchmark for inline coating and metallization, while the compact PST Line C brings high-performance solutions to smaller production environments. Both systems address the demands of industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and automotive, where precision and compliance are non-negotiable.
CEO Davide Perego reflects on the company’s trajectory: “We have always believed that being Italian means uniting tradition with innovation. Our machines are built here, but they are designed to perform everywhere in the world.”
International growth through adaptability
One of Tapematic’s distinguishing features is the adaptability of its systems. With modular configurations that can be tailored to different markets, and compact versions that serve emerging economies, the company has been able to expand far beyond its domestic base. Today, Tapematic technologies are installed worldwide, proving that Italian engineering can compete at the highest level of global industry.
VP Sales Antonio Scotti underlines this vision: “Every market has its own challenges, but innovation is universal. Our goal is to deliver systems that not only solve technical problems but also help our clients achieve strategic growth worldwide.”
Looking ahead with sustainability in focus
As sustainability becomes an unavoidable priority, Tapematic is aligning its research and development with ecological responsibility. UV spray coating technologies that reduce energy consumption and material waste are not just technical upgrades—they are part of a broader vision of what future industrial production must look like. This focus ensures that the company’s international expansion is not only about market share, but also about contributing to global goals of efficiency and environmental stewardship.
