For 65 years at the forefront of the transfer machine and machining center industry, in 2023 Picchi proudly celebrates 100 years of Bugatti Group history. It is an opportunity to confirm its lifelong commitment while keeping clear the mission, vision and heritage of values consolidated year after year.
A history of passion and solid skills that began 100 years ago
Since 1958, the year of its founding, Picchi has been an integral part of the Group Bugatti - La San Marco Sapa, a flourishing industrial reality that has its roots in a unique territory (the Val Trompia valley, in the province of Brescia) confirming its role as an absolute protagonist in the various fields of its activities.
At a time in history that is particularly challenging from several points of view, the Bugatti Group celebrates its first 100 years of history with the knowledge that it has been able to grasp, face and overcome various challenges, adapting to changes and, often, anticipating them.
The strength of the Bugatti Group is primarily its people: a large family that with passion, hard work and dedication has transformed a small family business into an established and internationally recognized company. Over the years, the company has evolved, diversifying its activities in full compliance with its corporate mission: to grow together with the people who bring ideas and actions to life, persisting in constant innovation and continuous improvement. The goal? To always improve, to improve even more.
Competitiveness and diversification under the sign of sustainability
The Bugatti Group operates in diversified and complementary sectors: from automation to machine tools, from outdoor lighting systems to table and kitchenware, from die casting to plastic injection and foundry mold making, from organic farming to energy production from renewable and environmentally sustainable sources.
Picchi's commitment to a more sustainable future mirrors a sensitivity inherent in the Bugatti Group's DNA. Indeed, the reduction of environmental impact and the safety of people are at the heart of the company's philosophy. Consistent with this philosophy, the Bugatti Group has made industrial choices that today have led it to cover 36.94% of its energy needs with renewable sources - on the strength of more than 1,600,000 kWh of energy produced each year by its power and photovoltaic plants - aiming to cover 60% by 2025.
Minimizing negative impacts on the environment, while promoting the well-being of local communities, is one of the Bugatti Group's key tools for achieving full integration of economic, social, and environmental objectives to create long-term value for all the parties involved.
Traditions to pass on and a future to nurture
100 years after its founding, the Bugatti Group, proudly looks back on its history. A history of economic and social growth that has always put people at the center. In this sense, the company's activities focus on the implementation of professional training programs, aimed at supporting the future of new generations and fostering their growth through practical experience and training activities. This contributes to the development of a more inclusive and future-ready society.
Realizing that innovation and agility will be even more important in the next 100 years, the Bugatti Group with all its companies will continue to work to be a frontrunner in the different areas of business, creating value for customers, employees, and society.
