Futura.
Partners in perfomance

Futura S.p.A. is the leading technology company for the manufacturing of converting lines in the Consumer and AFH tissue markets. It has earned this reputation through the endeavours of its President Fabio Perini, the man who changed the world of tissue and infused the company with his innovative drive and vision of a better future based on radical yet simple inventions.

This is why Futura has always invested significant resources in R&D, including a lab for developing and testing new technologies and automation solutions aimed at optimising and simplifying production systems with the goal of making them more efficient, safe and integrated.

Following the acquisition of Plusline, the focus on integration between converting and packaging has taken on greater importance than ever and has resulted in a seamless process from mother reel to shelf-ready packs for consumers.

In addition to tissue, in recent years Futura has also applied its technological know-how to the development of integrated solutions for the nonwoven sector, introducing innovations such as the Create calender and Andromeda handling system to a sector that rapidly reaped the benefits.

// History & leadership

Fabio Perini

Fabio Perini was born near Lucca into a family of paper entrepreneurs. At the age of 17 he had already patented his first device for process automation in paper manufacturing. This was the first idea, and the first patent, in a long series of technological breakthroughs that in just a short while would redefine the concept of tissue converting. Since then he has dedicated his career to the creation of new industrial models and technology innovation.

He was nominated ‘Cavaliere del Lavoro’ in 1991.
