Profilitec, Italian producer of floor profiles and related installation solutions, has a new place to call home just a few kilometers away from its original location in the province of Vicenza, in the town of Isola Vicentina, Italy.
Volume increase and product range expansions prompted Profilitec’s management team to relocate operations to a new 130,000-sq.-ft. facility. This new logistics and production hub offers more than double the workspace of the previous building.
“After opening the company’s American branch, Profilitec Corp. in New York in July 2016, this is the second fundamental step towards strengthening Profilitec’s growth,” said Roderick Egli, president, CEO and owner. “Our company has a strong international vocation, yet this investment is a testament to our strong bond with Italy and its production system.”
The plant features the latest in sustainable building materials and technologies. In addition to increased production, Profilitec now has a place for product training, customer visits, industry meetings and areas for research, development and continued testing for its product lines.
“The building was designed according to modern standards, which can respond to the ever-changing business needs, providing for the doubling of finished products warehouse and office space,” said Alessandro Fabris, sales, marketing and business development director. “Some processes, originally outsourced, are now produced here, with an improvement in efficiency and customer service. Everything is automated.”
