Pezzutti, 125 million with recycled plastic. "Already zero emissions" - Corriere.it
Sustainability comes from planning, which is why we take care of design, as well as production and distribution, says Emanuele Bassetto, CEO and shareholder of Pezzutti Group, the group from Fiume Veneto, in the province of Pordenone, which is owned (with 35% ) from the Friulia regional finance company, which has been operating for more than 40 years in the sstamping of plastic products for the furniture sector and accessories for the home and food packaging, as well as technical usesnici, for example for components for coffee machines, air conditioning and thermo-hydraulics.
The numbers: the group has a turnover of 125 million, 80% from abroad, up from 96 million in 2021 and from 75 million in 2020; but the progression is even more evident compared to 28 million 12 years ago, thanks above all to food containers, food packaging and home design (with 350,000 polycarbonate chairs produced each year). There are 280 employees, 64% women, including a factory manager; while there are 4 factories, in the province of Pordenone (the last one, inaugurated in 2018 according to the logic of industry 4.0,) for a total of 25,000 square meters of production area and 18,000 meters of warehouses. The most important data, however, are on sustainability: We are a zero-emissions company, certified since 2014, because we only use energy from renewable sources, 10% produced with our solar panels and the rest bought in Switzerland, and with zero consumption of water, thanks to the continuous recirculation. Furthermore, 50% of our products are made with recycled plastic, through the recovery of 300,000 tonnes of plastic per yearequivalent to 300 million bottles in Italy and partly from Japan, says the manager.
If until now Pezzutti Group has worked on behalf of third parties, designing products together with customers, last year it has registered its own brand, r-Materialwhere the r stands for renewable and recycled. Now we want to make a dimensional leap, we are looking to buy a company with a turnover of between 15 and 50 million, anticipates Bassetto, assisted by Broletto Corporate Advisory in the research process. The target? Reach 300 million in revenues in 5 years.
