Dürr Systems Italy S.p.A. will combine expertise in final assembly and painting technologies, operating from Milan and Turin with around 120 employees. The merger aligns with Dürr’s global strategy and aims to deliver a broader, more efficient service offering for customers in the automotive and industrial sectors, while maintaining continuity of existing contracts.
The multinational engineering company Dürr has strengthened its footprint in Italy by merging its subsidiaries CPM S.p.A. and Olpidürr S.p.A. The unified company will operate under the new name Dürr Systems Italy S.p.A., bringing together the firm’s competencies in final assembly and painting technologies to boost efficiency and enhance value for customers across the automotive and industrial sectors.
Effective from 1st December 2025, the merged organisation will operate from Milan and Turin with a workforce of around 120 employees under the leadership of CEO Andreas Hohmann. The integration combines long-standing expertise in turnkey final assembly solutions with advanced painting, pretreatment and electrocoating technologies primarily used in vehicle production.
“The new company name marks a reinforcement of Dürr’s presence and identity in Italy. The merger strengthens our alignment with Dürr’s global strategy and ensures continuity and added value for all our customers,” has stated Andreas Hohmann.
Existing contracts and services will remain unaffected, while customers are expected to benefit from a broader and more innovative offering. The consolidated portfolio will cover consulting, planning and implementation of assembly processes, alongside painting technology, pretreatment systems and electrocoating. Dürr’s high-performance technologies, including its ProFleet automated guided vehicles (AGVs), are already in use at vehicle manufacturers worldwide, enabling flexible and cost-efficient production tailored to specific industrial requirements.
The new organisational structure is designed to simplify project management, reduce administrative overheads and support stable, long-term customer relationships. Services will include preventive maintenance, technical assistance and plant modernisation.
“We can offer our customers in the automotive and industry sectors a unique combination of expertise, comprehensive manufacturing solutions and reliability throughout the entire production cycle,” has added Andreas Hohmann.
Dürr maintains another subsidiary in Italy, Verind S.p.A., based in Milan. Verind will continue to operate independently within the Dürr Group, specialising in robotic and application technologies. The company designs and manufactures industrial systems for application, ultrafiltration and wastewater treatment serving both automotive and general industry. It also acts as Dürr’s Centre of Excellence for electronic dosing machines. Verind provides engineering, laboratory services and technologies for applying painting and coating products to materials including metal, aluminium wheels, plastic, wood, ceramic, marble, composite and glass.
