Ferrarini & Benelli designs and manufactures Corona surface treatments and Plasma 3D treatments. Its headquarters are in Romanengo, in the province of Cremona (Italy).
In the field of packaging and production of plastic materials, the search for a suitable surface treatment is very important and constantly evolving as new materials and additives are introduced.
At Ferrarini & Benelli we keep abreast of materials development by working closely with the major international manufacturers (OEM) of extrusion and flexible packaging processing equipment, who incorporate our solutions in their lines.
