SUMMA acquires Valiani to expand business in flatbed cutting

Summa announces its acquisition of Valiani to strengthen its position as the leading manufacturer in print finishing equipment. The merged business will continue as before and will complement each other to offer customers an even broader range of cutting solutions. Valiani, with its headquarters in Certaldo, Florence, Italy, is a developer and manufacturer of small to medium sized, highly reliable flatbed cutters with a worldwide distribution network. Moreover, the company has an extensive history in the picture framing industry and is a pioneer in converting this market to digital solutions.

Their innovative approach has ensured the company to grow into other markets as well. The recent Omnia auto feed die cutting machine from Valiani is a unique automated solution for the corrugated and folding carton market, whereas the brand new Integra offers an appealing finishing product for the signage & display market. In the recent years Valiani has renewed its complete portfolio with a wider range of solutions and now it is starting to pay off with a significant growth.
