Who we are. History.

Since 1973, a Success
Driven by Quality.

In the distant year of 1973, the young Armando Ferrari embarked on his journey into the realm of plastics with a passion that would shape his future.

From that moment forward, his determination and dedication charted the course of his career and his company.
After a mere five years, Mr. Ferrari ascended to the role of head of the molding department at the company where he was employed, which specialized in the production of bicycle wheels.
With significant entrepreneurial zeal and the steadfast support of his family, Mr. Ferrari’s dream materialized in 1986 when he acquired the company, thus founding SMP. The company commenced its operations in a modest warehouse of approximately 250 square meters, yet its founder harbored grander ambitions.

Over the ensuing years, SMP experienced growth, relocating in 1990 to the historic headquarters on Via Rose in Brescia, which remained the company’s home for 33 years.

There, with the invaluable assistance of his wife, Giuliana, a family united by a singular objective worked relentlessly to construct a company rooted in quality and commitment.

The telecommunications sector constituted the core business during the early years of operation, but the company’s expertise swiftly expanded through investments in cutting-edge technologies and state-of-the-art presses.

In 2014, SMP seized a new market opportunity by entering the realm of scented plastics production,

complementing the traditional production of technical materials, thereby ensuring a comprehensive service for clients. Collaborations with esteemed national and international brands in the fragrance sector solidified the company’s reputation in this specialized market.

Our history

Milestones of our journey.

The generational transition between 2017 and 2018 witnessed the entry of Mr. Ferrari’s children, Stefania and Andrea, into the family business. With new competencies and a future-oriented vision, the entire family is devoted to perpetuating a philosophy centered on quality and innovation.

In 2020, the company further augmented its services by introducing the capability for direct prototyping via 3D printers.

In 2021, the TÜV ISO 9001 certification provided tangible evidence of SMP’s unwavering commitment to excellence.
Today, in 2024, SMP continues to expand and evolve. With a new, modern facility spanning nearly 3500 square meters, designed to meet the increasing demands of internal production and packaging, the company is poised to confront future challenges while steadfastly upholding its promise to deliver superior quality products and services.
