Evolve to grow: the numbers of VIBO’s five-year strategic plan

In our vision Bontempi VIBO position itself as a European leader in the production of screws and bolts, establishing itself as a point of reference for every specialized distributor active in the sector.

Aware of the need to grow constantly in order to consolidate our competitive position, we have drawn up a five-year strategic plan to expand our production frontiers: we aim to exceed 45,000 tons by 2027 and 50,000 tons by 2028.

2013 – 2023: A decade of consolidation

The past decade has been dedicated to consolidation. The average annual production of Bontempi VIBO alone stood at around 23,000 tons, pursuing the ambition to become Europe’s most efficient producer of standard fasteners.

The growth strategy in this decade included the acquisition of two companies: FRAM S.r.l., specialized in the hot production of screws and structural fasteners, and Mi.Me.Af. S.p.A., focused on the production of special customized nuts and bolts. These additions increased our production capacity by 3,000 tons, bringing the total to approximately 26,000 tons per year.

2024 – 2027: The future in numbers

In order to double our production capacity by 2028, we are enhancing the plants in Rodengo Saiano (BS) and Calabritto (AV), with significant investments in infrastructure and new technologies. Here is how we plan to grow in the coming years:

Chart
  • 2024: The new furnace for heat treatment in Calabritto is enabling us to add 4,500 tons to our annual production, reaching 30,500 tons.
  • 2025: The south furnace will become fully operational, enabling us to produce more than 9,000 tons of screws per year, totaling 35,000 tons.
  • 2026: We will open a new north furnace in Rodengo Saiano, which will increase our production by further 5,000 tons over the previous year.
  • 2027: The north furnace will also become fully operational, taking us over 45,000 tons produced. We do not exclude the possibility of further acquisitions that could increase our output even more significantly.

We are confident in the success of our plans and reconfirm our commitment to maintaining high standards of quality and reliability. Follow the updates on the progress of this important growth path!
