BOBST announced the completion on Nov. 11, 2021 of the proceedings relating to Bobst Italia SpA’s successful final tender offer for the acquisition of the assets of Officine Meccaniche Giovanni Cerutti SpA and Cerutti Packaging Equipment SpA, including the service company 24/7 Cerutti Service S.r.l., (Cerutti).
Based in San Giorgio Monferrato, Bobst Italia is BOBST’s worldwide center of excellence for gravure printing, laminating, and coating technologies for the flexible packaging industry.
The Cerutti acquisition is in line with BOBST’s strategic goal of further consolidating its technology and market leadership in the global gravure printing market.

Through this acquisition, the Bobst Group adds to its assets the Cerutti brand, the Cerutti intellectual property rights and all Cerutti intangible assets. Thirty Cerutti ex-employees will join Bobst Italia’s personnel at the company site in San Giorgio Monferrato.
“We are very pleased that the proceedings have finally come to a completion, ending a pe-riod of uncertainty for the Cerutti stakeholders locally and worldwide,” said Davide Gara-vaglia, GM and head of Product Lines Gravure, Vacuum, Coating & Laminating at Bobst Italia.
