This year, we proudly celebrate the 75th anniversary of Tecniplast Group, marking our continuous commitment to innovation in the Laboratory Animal Science industry. As we reach this remarkable milestone, we take a moment to reflect on our rich history and look forward to a future filled with excellence.
Founded in 1949 by visionary engineer Carlo Bernardini, Tecniplast began as a small manufacturing company focused on producing plastic technological solutions. The “Tecniplast” brand name reflects this, combining “tecnologia” (keeping the Italian spelling of “technology”) and plastic.
Our first clients were renowned Italian manufacturing companies of the time, which made Tecniplast envision a bright future ahead: for Olivetti, we produced typewriter ribbons; for Bassani Ticino (now BTicino), we molded plastic components for switches; for Pastorino, we manufactured tool handles; and for Domovar, we supplied plastic components for fridges.
Soon, Tecniplast found its way into manufacturing pioneering plastic cages for research, with a vision and commitment to revolutionize the Laboratory Animal equipment industry. Since then, Tecniplast's history has intertwined with the evolution of Biomedical Research, constantly meeting new frontiers and evolving with the Life Science Industry.
Tecniplast has been constantly growing over the decades, transforming from a small company where a handful of people shared all the tasks necessary to run the business, into a global leader renowned for its commitment to quality, sustainability, and cutting-edge technology.
But what sets us apart is our deep-rooted family values.
Tecniplast is now managed by Carlo's three sons, Alessandro, Edoardo, and Pietro, and has stayed true to its founding principles while adapting to the ever-evolving industry landscape.
Proudly remaining a family-owned business, the Bernardini family's leadership ensures that our dedication to excellence, innovation, integrity, and personal touch remains at the forefront of our operations.
Throughout our history, our core values and pioneering spirit have in fact remained unchanged.
We prioritize the quality of our products, ensuring they meet the highest standards to support research that advances human and animal health.
Our dedication to environmental and social sustainability is reflected in our practices, as we continuously strive to minimize our environmental footprint and contribute positively to the communities in which we operate.
We owe our success to the dedication and hard work of our incredible team, the support of our partners, and the trust of our clients.
As we celebrate this significant anniversary, we express our gratitude to everyone who has been part of our journey. Together, we have built a legacy that stands the test of time, and we look forward to continuing this journey with the same passion, commitment, and determination that have brought us here.
Looking ahead, we remain committed to pushing the boundaries of what is possible, continuing to provide innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of the research community. With a strong foundation built on 75 years of excellence and family values, we are excited about the future and the new opportunities it will bring.
Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our story.
Let’s celebrate together 75 years of family values, innovation, and excellence.
Here’s to another 75 years of driving research progress for all!
