Last June 6, 2016, a sudden stroke took away Roberto Bottacini, Knight of Labor, President of Pneumax Spa, which is just about to celebrate its 40th business anniversary.Bottacini was born in Brugherio, near Milan, but in the Seventies he moved to Lurano (near Bergamo) where in 1976 (together with Giuseppe Beretta) he established Pneumax, a company that quickly achieved a leading position in the pneumatic automation business on the global markets.
The group is active in Europe, India, China, Singapore and Brazil, but it has maintained production in Italy by will of its founder, who has always worked to promote “made in Italy” around the world and support the economic growth of his home country.
His daughters Rossella and Monica Bottacini, together with Marco and Liliana Beretta, will stick to Roberto’s lesson, the values he transferred to them, the feeling of shared unity, continuing the development and expansion activities already in place, while preserving close relations with the local community.
