A new building for the Mould Construction Workshop

  By ,

Thirteen thousand metres with a strong environmental focus.

A building adjacent to Euro Stampaggi’s main factory has recently been purchased. This space, measuring approximately 1,300 square metres, will house the Mould Construction Workshop, which has always been one of the organisation’s key departments.

It all starts there, at the workshop, which is why investments always involve it. With a view to self-producing energy, a photovoltaic system will be installed on the roof of the building, alongside the existing one. Once all the modernisation and plant engineering work has been completed, the department is expected to move at the beginning of 2026.

The Lost Wax Casting department is reborn

New 3D machinery at the Euromim Veneta factory

After seven years of inactivity, the Microcasting department is back in operation using the lost wax technique.

Lost wax casting arrived at Euro Stampaggi back in 2008, a production process that differed from the company’s traditional activities, rich in craftsmanship and history, but capable of interpreting the diverse needs of its customers. 

Set aside in 2018 to make room for new and challenging projects, the Lost Wax Casting department has resumed operations at the Euro Mim Veneta plant, with a significant new feature: the combination of this ancient art of casting (dating back to Etruscan civilisation) with modern 3D printing equipment.

Alessandro Zatta is the CEO of Euro Mim Veneta and began his adventure in the world of moulding in 1996 at the age of 25, as an apprentice to master craftsman Lineo Tabarin, specialising in the lost wax technique. “Microcasting is an artistic technique,” explains Zatta, “which, combined with the latest technologies, allows us to satisfy customers who need small batches and very short delivery times. There was a perfectly functioning but idle plant in Florence, so we moved it to Veneto and modernised it, and since September we have already been operational with the first orders from the eyewear accessories sector.”

100,000 kg of virgin wood saved in 15 years

Since 2010 the use of only recycled wood pallets

Fifteen years ago, Euro Stampaggi chose to use only fully recycled wooden pallets for goods handling. Thanks to this focus, some 100,000 kilograms of virgin wood have been saved since then; more than 6,600 kilograms are avoided each year.

In 2010, not many companies were taking such decisive steps in the direction of environmental protection. “Every journey, even the longest, begins with a step’… with the words of the philosopher Lao Tzu, Euro Stampaggi director Giovanni Manselli, comments on the choices of that time: ‘Ė a thought that gives an idea of how the commitment of every day constitutes one of the first steps of the company towards sustainability and the reduction of its environmental footprint’.

In fact, further steps have been taken in a journey that is still long, but must not be interrupted; for example, the use of certified recycled paper, the purchase of full electric company cars and the increase in self-generation of electricity through photovoltaics.
