Our History

The Roots

Established in Viano (RE), Italy, in 1980, our Group began its journey under the leadership of Enrico Grassi, founder and current President of E80 Group. From the outset, we have been driven by a clear vision: to rethink and enhance intralogistics processes for manufacturing and distribution centers through innovation and technology.

The Nineties

Thanks to teamwork and forward-thinking, that vision began to take shape. Our Group pioneered early concepts of what would later become known as Industry 4.0, and in 1992 delivered a groundbreaking Smart Factory for Costerplast: a fully automated and interconnectedproduction plant that represented a significant milestone in the evolution of intralogistics.
