Italian steel manufacturer, Arvedi Group, has celebrated 50 years of collaboration with the Piantoni Group (GAP).

GAP provides heavy logistics and started operations in support of the production facilities at Acciaieria Tubificio Arvedi (now Arvedi Tubi Acciaio).

Giovanni Arvedi, President of Arvedi Group, said: "50 years of collaboration represent an extraordinary milestone, built day after day on expertise, mutual trust and shared values.

"It is tangible proof of how genuine, robust and enduring partnerships can become a driving force for industrial growth and development, helping us face the challenges that lie ahead."

A key highlight of the partnership was the construction of the new Acciaieria Arvedi and the introduction of the ISP continuous casting and rolling technology in the early 1990s.

Eligio Piantoni, CEO of GAP, added: "This important milestone stands as tangible evidence of a relationship built over time on trust, continuity and the sharing of common goals.

“We are proud to have supported the evolution of the Arvedi Group through our daily contribution, providing expertise, people and organisational capabilities in service of industry. It is a journey that continues today with the same spirit of collaboration and shared growth."
