Bonfiglioli presented last october its EVO project, the nextEVOlution of the company’s business to industry 4.0 concepts. The plant will be the Group’s largest industrial site in Italy, and will be located in the ‘Clementino Bonfiglioli’ area, measuring 148.700 sq.m., in which by 2018 the foundation of a modern factory will be laid. Including the current Calderara plant, when fully operational the EVO plant will cover an area of 58.500 sq.m., employing 600 workers as a result of the integration of all industrial activities that are part of the Industrial Business Unit, currently split among italian plants of Calderara di Reno, Sala Bolognese and Vignola.

Once completed, EVO will have absorbed investments for 60 million euro overall, divided as 30 million in new production technologies in line with Industry 4.0 best practices, and 30 million in infrastructures, for a production capacity of 800.000 units a year. EVO is aimed to become the long term point of focus for Bonfiglioli’s competitive growth strategy in the field of industrial processing and handling products. The project is designed following the most recent energy efficient standards, generating more energy than is required by all buildings using renewable sources, such as a 3 MW peak power photovoltaic plant, mounted not only on the building’s roof but also in the awnings of the staff car park.
