Simest, the public entity dedicated to the internationalization of Italian enterprises, has made the strategic decision to allocate 5 million euros towards Poggipolini's expansion in the North American market. Poggipolini, a leading provider of precision mechanics for the aerospace, defense, and automotive industries, is headquartered in Bologna. The funds were utilized to acquire Houston Precision Fasteners, an American company with a customer portfolio that includes major aerospace and defense corporations such as Boeing, Gulfstream Aerospace, Lockheed Martin, Bell Helicopter, and Axiom. In addition to expanding its customer base, the deal will allow Poggipolini to strengthen its competitive position in North America, a key market for the reference industry. Poggipolini, with 150 personnel comprising engineers, mechanics, administrative operators, and highly qualified workers, is a global leader in the hot forging segment of high-tech fasteners, using materials such as titanium, inconel, and other super alloys. Leonardo Spa, Boeing, Airbus, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, and Ducati are among the companies to whom the company supplies and collaborates technologically.
