The company has invested more than 54 million euros in machines and technology in the last six years and is also one of the main players in the printed products sector for the agro-food industry.

Arti Grafiche Boccia is among the companies selected within the Waterstone exhibition area at Expo 2015. Its presence at the world fair fits into the Salerno-based company’s process of growth and diversification. For a while now it has been expanding its portfolio beyond the publishing industry to provide printed material for the agro-food industry, including labels, sleeves and cases, and it has become one of the main players in the sector.
One of the strengths of the company, which has invested more than 54 million euros in machines and technology over the past five years, is its constant search for innovation in organisation, processes and products. Recently it invested in the Cerutti S96 flexo-rotary press, which helped the company consolidate its collection of machines and generate significant economies of scale, while at the same time transferring experience in newspapers to large retail chains. Overnight the machine is used for printing local, national and international newspapers while in the day it is used for printed material for retail chains, with production times comparable to those of newspapers. It offers a unique service for Italian clients in terms of the number of pages it can handle (from 8 to 96 pages in full colour tabloid size) and the possibility to make plate changes starting from 1,000 copies at really competitive costs.
The acquisition fits into a company strategy of growth and product diversification with its entry also in the packaging industry, through the purchase of two Bobst die cutters, and the entry in the sleeves and cases sector, with an increase in sales for the competent division of more than 60 % in one year .
The company’s strategy is to consolidate its presence in the European market, and now grows in the Arab Emirates.
