The Fantuzzi Group offers an abundance of material handling equipment and heavy machinery. The fleet consists of a plethora of machines focused on loading, unloading and transporting goods. The railway freight sector and the port authority utilize a big portion of their equipment.
Initially beginning in the 1960s as a zoo-technical and agricultural equipment manufacturer in the province of Reggio Emilia, Fantuzzi has grown to become a global leader in the heavy equipment industry. Now a multinational company, the company gradually expanded after welcoming successful advancements and overcoming a large number of technological challenges. Luciano Fantuzzi is the President and founder of the group. In 1967, the group started making side lift trucks specifically for hauling timber and extended materials such as metal rods that weighed between 3 to five tonnes. The firm enjoyed frequent orders and completed 60 units in the second year; which was 5 times greater than their first year sales.
Within a short amount of time, the company grew exponentially. In 1968, a heavy-duty side-loader British model that was capable of lifting up to 32 tonnes inspired Luciano Fantuzzi. He wanted to create something that had more power with a similar style. After completing this machine and accomplishing his goal, Luciano began receiving orders from French Railways, Fiat and many others. Nowadays, the Fantuzzi Group Italy has a large number of manufacturing plants around the globe including Italy, Germany and China. The firm proudly exports to 162 countries.
Fantuzzi has kindly shared its patented expertise with nations all around the world with the goal of making the material handling, heavy equipment and transportation industries more convenient. Advancements and digital technology are serving to transform the industry.
