Omnia Technologies, the platform for automation and bottling technologies for the distilled spirits, wine, soft drinks, dairy and pharmaceutical industries, has created a new High-Speed Beverage division focused on blow moulding, bottling, labelling and packaging technologies through the acquisition of Acmi, Sacmi Beverage and Sacmi Labelling.
Sacmi, based in Fornovo di Taro (Parma, Italy), designs and manufactures complete packaging and bottling lines, mainly for the food and beverage industry. Founded in 1984 by the Magri family, the company has a turnover of around 100 million euros and employs 420 people in five production plants in northern Italy and four sales offices in Mexico, Poland, the United Kingdom and the United States. Acmi's product portfolio includes palletisers and depalletisers, cartoners, wrappers, manipulators, multifunctional robots and conveyor systems.
Sacmi Beverage and Sacmi Labelling are two well-established players in the market, thanks to the strategic investments and know-how that Sacmi has developed in the bottling and labelling sectors over the last few decades.
Headquartered in Parma, Italy, Sacmi Beverage supplies stand-alone machines and complete high-speed blow-moulding and bottling lines for PET/rPET (virgin/recycled PET plastic), cans and glass bottles, as well as solutions for the dairy industry - with form-fill-seal technology - and for the wine industry with bag-in-box solutions. Sacmi Beverage has sales of approximately 110 million euros, approximately 160 employees and an installed base of more than 600 machines.
Based in Verona and Nanhai, China, Sacmi Labelling provides automatic labelling solutions for glass, plastic and metal containers for the fast-moving beverage, beer, food, wine and detergent industries. The company has a turnover of around 70 million euros, 300 employees and an installed base of more than 1,700 machines.
Sacmi Beverage and Sacmi Labelling share a global network of subsidiaries in France, Spain, Morocco, Nigeria, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, Brazil, Mexico and the United States.
The values that drive Omnia Technologies are technology, sustainability and customer service. With the creation of the new High-Speed Beverage Division, Omnia Technologies has significantly expanded its bottling and packaging portfolio, enhancing its ability to offer innovative end-to-end solutions, also thanks to the integration with the beverage processing technologies designed and manufactured by TMCI Padovan and Della Toffola. I would like to thank Sacmi and the Magri family for sharing the values in which we believe and for supporting us in the realisation of such an important and strategic operation,
Andrea Stolfa, CEO of Omnia Technologies, pointed out.
The Omnia Technologies platform was created in November 2020 by independent companies from the European investment fund Investindustrial, through the combination of Della Toffola, Bertolaso, TMCI Padovan and a number of other strategic and complementary companies.
Following the acquisition of Acmi, Sacmi Beverage and Sacmi Labelling, Omnia Technologies has a turnover of around 700 million euros, with 36 production plants, 24 sales offices in 16 countries and over 2,300 employees.
The acquisitions of Omnia Technologies, Sacmi Imola and Acmi were supported by Intesa Sanpaolo (IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division), Cavour Corporate Finance and Pirola Corporate Finance.
