The company from Caravaggio ( Bergamo ) recently opened its doors to celebrate its 50th anniversary with a special event not only to honour the past , but also to look to the future with determination . Founded by Albino Premoli , who describes his adventure as a “ healthy madness ”, SPD has been able to grow thanks to the dedication and strategic vision of the management . “ I took the chance because I didn ’ t want to have the regret of not trying ,” Premoli said . Today , Roberto Pola , CEO of SPD , reflects on the company ’ s evolution : “ We are proud to create magnetic clamping and workpiece handling solutions that often exceed our customers ’ expectations . We |
believe in teamwork and a serene environment that promotes harmonious growth .”

Participants had the opportunity to explore SPD ’ s plants on a guided tour that showed the different aspects of the company , from design and production to research and mechatronics . This tour made it possible to appreciate the technological level achieved by SPD . In addition , a new work by artist Dario Tironi , entitled “ Magnetide ”, was unveiled . This work , which recalls the caryatids of ancient Greece , represents strength , safety and reliability , all symbols that convey SPD ’ s ethics and technology . A panel discussion provided an op-
