The Marchesini Group finalizes the acquisition of CMP PHAR.MA

The Marchesini Group finalized the 60% acquisition of CMP PHAR.MA from Costabissara (Vicenza), which was made official in December 2018.

In 1982, less than 10 years following its foundation, CMP was the first company in the world to offer an automatic vial inspection machine with laser rays. Subsequently, CMP consolidated its standing by putting together a range of machinery that now includes a wide array of automatic and semi-automatic inspection machines for vials, containers, pre-filled syringes, infusion bags, and freeze-dried products. Production diversification and expansion has boosted the company’s turnover, which in 2018 exceeded 9 million Euro, 35% more than the previous year.

The internationalization of CMP’s expertise further enhances Marchesini’s impressive range of products, offering stand-alone machines and complete lines capable of fully packaging all types of products of the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries from start to finish.

The transaction with CMP will allow the sales department of the Marchesini Group to fully satisfy even the most complex requests of customers, including the inspection and control phases.
