The mission of the Marchesini Group is to design and build stand-alone machines and customised lines for packaging pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Since Massimo Marchesini assembled his first cartoning machine in a garage back in 1974, from a local business,the Group has turned into a “compact” multinational enterprise, thanks to mergers and take-overs of complementary companies. Today, the Marchesini Group caters for the whole packaging process of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, from start to finish. It creates stand-alone machines and complete lines to package products such as vials, syringes,carpules, bottles and blisters through to putting the individual products into bundles, cases and on pallets.
