History
Fabio Perini and the Company rising
Fabio Perini starts his activity in 1960 when he invents a machinery for the automatic cut of tissue paper.
In 1966 he founds his company, the Fabio Perini, with a view to designing new engineering technologies and manufacturing industrial machinery for the tissue converting industry.
With the change and the improvement of lifestyles, the Italian tissue industry raises noticeably during the 1960s.
This fact favours Fabio Perini's company which grows up until 1973, when the company is turned into a Società per Azioni, becoming the Fabio Perini S.p.A..
Fabio Perini S.p.A.
Under the new form of Società per Azioni, Fabio Perini S.p.A. meets with a phase of international expansion. In the 1970s new offices are opened in Europe and America: two selling offices in Europe (Paris, 1974; Düsseldorf, 1976), one selling office in the United States (Green Bay, Wisconsin, 1978, at the Green Bay Engineering Company) and one manufacturing plant in Latin America (Joinville, Brazil, 1975).
During the '1980s and the '1990s further branches are opened in Asia (Yokohama, 1984; Hong Kong, 1985; Fuji, 1991), Europe (London, 1984) and United States (Miami, 1990).
In about 20 years, thanks to many original design patents, the company Fabio Perini transformed itself from a one-man business to a multinational enterprise able to cover up the 75% of the worldwide market of the paper making industry and the tissue converting machinery.
As acknowledgement of his entrepreneurship, in 1991 the founder Fabio Perini is ordered Knight of the Italian Republic, under the Order of Merit for Labour.
Entering the Körber Group
In 1994 the founder Fabio Perini sells his company to the German multinational group Körber.
