Bonfiglioli UK's 2,400m2 facility is located in Warrington, near Manchester, and is one of 21 commercial branches worldwide.
Bonfiglioli says the anniversary is particularly special as the UK is an economically important market for the company.
As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bonfiglioli S.P.A., Bonfiglioli UK is responsible for all sales activities of the mobility & wind (M&W) and discrete manufacturing & process industries (D&P) as well as motion & robotics (M&R) business units in the UK. Bonfiglioli UK has 23 employees and generated sales of £34m in the last financial year.
All the business areas of the Bonfiglioli Group are represented in the UK. The D&P business area is active in many mechanical engineering sectors, among others, and also offers solutions for almost all industrial applications. An extensive product portfolio ranges from precision gearboxes to extremely powerful large planetary gearboxes is the basis for further growth.
The M&W business unit supplies many major manufacturers of mobile construction machinery, cranes, and agricultural applications. In addition to hydraulic applications, Bonfiglioli says it accompanies the market in the electrification of these machines, doing pioneering work that demonstrates its innovation capabilities. In azimuth and pitch drives for wind turbines, Bonfiglioli has a global market share of around 35% and claims to be the market leader. The M&R business unit rounds off the drive portfolio with its high-performance frequency inverters and servo controllers.
