It all began with a hole in the wall.
Twenty-year-old Aurelio Sangalli, working as an engraver in Milan, had a sudden insight: he realized that mass-producing even simple metal components could be far more profitable than his current work.
Sharing the idea with his family, he found effective support from his father Mario and brother-in-law Luigi. After acquiring their first machine tool, they were faced with an unexpected challenge: it wouldn’t fit in their home. Undeterred, they knocked a hole in the wall, making room not just for the machine, but for their new venture. It was the first step in breaking barriers and embracing the innovative spirit that still defines our company.
Today, that very machine stands proudly in our reception area, a powerful reminder of how a young man’s vision, family support, and out-of-the-box thinking sparked the journey that built our Group.

At M.S.Ambrogio, we operate from our main site in Cisano Bergamasco and also from a 6,000-square-meter facility in Chignolo d'Isola, staffed by 60 of our dedicated colleagues.
This plant, in addition to supporting the general production of our company with a wide array of processes and machineries, is also specialized in the production of stacked laminations used as #magnetic cores.
Electrical steel strips, made of an iron-silicon alloy with special magnetic properties, are used for manufacturing these components, that are vital for applications demanding precise electromagnetic field control, including electric motors and other advanced #electrical systems.
This is a highlight of our production, which combines technical expertise, experience, and a constant pursuit of innovative and high-performance components.

⚠ At M.S.Ambrogio, we deeply believe that safety is a moral responsibility for everyone. This week, in collaboration with Confindustria Bergamo, we hosted a first meeting with ANMIL, the Association for Injured and Disabled Workers, attended by our department supervisors and company executives, to launch the "Emotional Training on Safety" initiative.
Our commitment extends far beyond merely meeting the mandatory legal requirements. We want to raise awareness among our employees about the critical importance of vigilance and preventive measures to avoid any kind of inattention. This involves not just individual attentiveness to personal safety but also fostering a culture of collective responsibility, where everyone looks out for the safety of their colleagues.
Let’s engage to safeguarding each other because every worker deserves to return home safely. 🏠

📈💡 Over the past year, we have observed a significantly positive trend in the number of students applying for internships at M.S.Ambrogio.
In almost 12 months, we have had the pleasure of hosting around 50 students from various fields of study, including Engineering, Economics, Languages, and Technical Institutes.
We take each internship request very seriously, striving to align each student’s field of study and personal aspirations with our company’s activities. This approach allows us to create a tailor-made #experience for any student. In addition, each intern is paired with a dedicated mentor who guides and supports her/him throughout the time with the company. This personalized #mentoring ensures that students gain valuable practical knowledge and skills, giving them a true insight into working within a global manufacturing company like ours.
Grateful thanks to all our colleagues who competently and willingly support these students, providing them with the essential tools for a successful career.

🆕🛫This week marks the kickoff of the remote technical assistance project among the group's companies.
A team of our technicians, thoroughly trained in the activation and automation process of assistance requests, has traveled to Hungary to train colleagues at Springfix Hungary Kft. and to set up equipment for remote video assistance and multilingual voice translation.
This solution, carefully designed by our Continuous Improvement team, will enable M.S.Ambrogio to swiftly address any technical issues that arise in the group's facilities, significantly reducing travel time and costs.
In addition, the use of #AI software will eliminate potential language barriers, ensuring effective understanding and providing the opportunity for ongoing training.
Well done to our team for their outstanding efforts.
We will continue to monitor the progress of this project, which will be extended to all the group's companies and will result in a significant increase in technical expertise across the board.

This modern facility, inaugurated in 2021, houses our technical department, dedicated to creating stamping tools that enhance our machinery and bring customer-designed products to life. Thanks to the exceptional skills and expertise of our technicians, combined with years of experience, we transform simple wires and metal strips into the complex components our clients need. These customized tools, tailored to each unique project, have a production timeline ranging from 4 to 12 months, depending on complexity. Once completed and transitioned to the production department, they begin a lifecycle that can last for decades.
This is where the technical and engineering heart of M.S.Ambrogio beats 💓

We're glad to share the positive and motivating results from the recently released 2023 M.S.Ambrogio carbon footprint report. 🌿 👣
Compared to 2021 baseline year, we've achieved an overall improvement of 21% across all analyzed categories!
These results are due to various mitigation and optimization actions we've promptly implemented.
The good performances registered can also be attributed to the numerous energy efficiency initiatives we've undertaken since 2015, such as:
💡 Replacing all lighting systems with energy-efficient LEDs
🔧 Upgrading compressors for better performance
☀️ Installing photovoltaic systems for self-consumption
These measures have consistently resulted in significant reductions of 32% in energy consumption and emissions compared to 2018.
Achieving such good results allows us to set new goals and challenges. Our commitment remains steadfast: to improve our impact on the #environment year after year, aiming to seamlessly combine environmental, social, and economic sustainability. 🌍

This May brings another great achievement: we have successfully completed the migration of our SAP ERP system to the cloud! ☁️
Our technical operations are now centrally managed with robust backups, ensuring excellent data protection and exceptionally fast recovery times. This guarantees a rapid resumption of business operations in case of any issues.
This migration not only safeguards our entire business process but also leverages a scalable and virtually unlimited data centre. With no bounds set on our growth, new opportunities open up for developing advanced capabilities, such as running simulations, predictive analysis, artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms.
Looking ahead, we will focus on integrating the ERP systems of all M.S.Ambrogio group companies. Our goal is to obtain a complete global view of our business operations, supported by accurate and up-to-date local data.
Kudos to our IT team! 👏
