It is further proof that Italy really is a great country".

We were quick to design an innovative technology - commented Alessandro Bulfon General Manager of Fameccanica - which combines speed standards with the product's ability to overcome the limits of finding raw materials. This puts us in a position today to face the country's reopening phase and tomorrow to deal any other emergency health situation”.
