Aerospazio, Poggipolini rileva la californiana Saturn Fasteners
Seconda operazione negli Usa per il gruppo bolognese specializzato in fissaggi. Obiettivo creare una piattaforma globale per la filiera spaziale
Poggipolini, an Italian aerospace and defense supply chain platform, has expanded its reach by acquiring California-based Saturn Fasteners. The acquisition, finalized on Monday, is the second U.S. operation for Poggipolini, following its 2024 purchase of Houston Precision Fasteners in Houston, Texas. CEO Michele Poggipolini explained that the two companies will complement each other, strengthening the group's presence in the strategic American market, which accounts for 80% of aerospace demand.
The acquisition aims to increase production capacity and meet the high demand for aerospace components. Poggipolini, which was once heavily invested in Formula 1 15 years ago, has shifted its focus to aerospace since 2010. The company's strategic growth includes international operations, with 75% of its revenue now generated abroad, and plans for organic growth at its San Lazzaro di Savena plant in Bologna, as well as acquisition-driven expansion in Europe and North America.
