馬貝

義大利馬貝集團於(MAPEI group)1937年在米蘭成立,馬貝已成為生產地板和牆壁裝置裝飾用的粘合劑和一些輔助產品的世界上的領導公司。

簡介

1937年,馬貝集團誕生於義大利米蘭。 1937年,馬貝集團誕生於義大利米蘭。

MAPEI也是生產建築防水系統化學產品的專家,也是混凝土中砂漿及水泥混合物生產的專家,包括歷史建築物的修復。

MAPEI也精於在對環境和安裝兩方面安全產品發展的研究。早在1970,MAPEI給世界市場帶來水分散和自由溶解產品。MAPEI投資其銷售收入的5%用於繼續它的研發-領導低TVOC產品的發展,以此來幫助提高居民住宅和商業建築的環境質量。

策略準則

MAPEI形成了三條策略準則:1)專業化:提供大範圍的具體的,先進技術產品來滿足消費者的需求,2)產品研發:從事產品研發的人員占公司員工的12%,3)國際化:局部化的生產滿足當地市場的需求。MAPEI英國有限公司於1989在米德爾斯布勒市成立。1999年,隨著管理隊伍的重大變化,公司遷到伯明罕市附近的Brierley Hill中享有盛譽的濱江地區商業公園。MAPEI英國公司管理一個技術部門,負責提供專家意見,內部培訓和定點技術支持。MAPEI英國公司把售後服務看作公司高質量目標整體中的一個主要部分;檢驗優質產品,系統並解決所有的套用。

MAPEI與McLaren技術中心技術隊和不同的定點承包商緊密地聯繫,以確保MAPEI產品能被小心地挑選以滿足高規格標準和技術服務隊能有效地監督定點安裝。用在McLaren 技術中心的MAPEI產品範圍非常廣泛並成為許多建築方面的重要組成部分。MAPEI英國有限公司強大地增長和成功導致在2002年宣布,在西部內陸地區的Halesowen裡面的Coombswood工業中心有一種全新的藝術級的製造業設備正在建造。7.5英畝的發展意味著MAPEI能抓到一個英國地板材料,陶瓷和建築工業的堅定的立足點。Mark Louch,公司的常務董事,聲明“這是MAPEI公司的重大投資,提高了MAPEI公司在全世界連續地發展的能力”。

MAPEI是世界上最大的建築用的粘合劑,密封劑和化學產品製造廠商,是一個安裝各種類型的地板和牆壁裝飾的產品發展的專家。MAPEI以其大大地強調研發而聞名。MAPEI成功地分析了原材料,產品和與他們有關的一切東西,這在他們發展高技術產品的質量,革新起到了一個基本的作用-是the McLaren Group的完美的匹配。MAPEI的質量板材處理產品ULTRAPLAN and ULTRAPLAN MAXI 過快的淬水摻和自流平混合物,MAPECEM水壓的裝訂工都被選來為他們的快速設定和最大化裝載電阻特性。陶瓷裝飾的安裝的理想的準備。GRANIRAPID 粘結系統有快速的安裝和水合作用對水池區域的石灰石安裝非常好。MAPEI的KERAPOXY環氧水泥漿用於整個的用管排水地區以確保硬度磨損和抗酸性。KERAPOXY有26種顏色可以用,所以在整個建築物可以有理想的美學折中主義審美觀。

MAPEI能為每個套用提供一個產品,一個系統和一個解決方案。the McLaren 技術中心用的 MAPEI系列產品範圍非常廣泛,在這個建築物上效果顯而易見,包括風洞用黑色的瓷製的陶瓷磚用 GRANIRAPID 粘合——一種速凝粘結系統並在黑色的KERAPOXY 水泥漿中完成。這種瓷磚混合物是自由溶解並且進而更進一步增加了McLaren技術中心一個定期的目標,把環境意識高度建立在建築的清單和維持優先權。

隨著技術中心的內部的說明,其它MAPEI產品也對建築物的美學作出了貢獻。例如,我們的ULTRAPLAN 混合物在設計階段被Foster及其搭檔選用,因為它內在的急速快凝的品質和其在內部地板上的自流平行能。這使其比其它缺少凝結速度的系統更優越,當地板材料需要被放置-地板材料,在這種情況,必須抵抗最大水平的荷載和腳步的流量。

About Mapei

Mapei was founded in Milan in 1937, and today is the world's leading manufacturer of adhesives and ancillary products for installing floors and all types of wall coverings in the world. The company also specialises in other chemical products for the building industry, from waterproofing products and special mortars and admixtures for concrete, to products for the renovation of historic buildings. With 46 facilities operating in all 5 continents, Mapei has developed a capillary technical-commercial network in all the most important countries around the world.

A LONG STORY A GREAT FAMILY

An unbreakable bond holds between the Squinzi family and Mapei:

a business idea that gave rise to a major Groups

The name stands for “Auxiliary materials for building and industry”: Mapei was founded on 12th February 1937 in the suburbs of Milan.

It is the story of a very small firm and family of businessmen – the Squinzis – whohave developed the Company into a leading multinational in the world of adhesives for building.

A success story which can boast something really special: Mapei has never closed a financial year in the red and has never resorted to redundancy payments.

In 1937 the firm had only three members of staff and began dealing in paints, coatings and materials for insides and outside coverings of buildings, hospitals and airports. The idea was Rodolfo Squinzi's, the Company founder, who led Mapei towards its initial success: focusing on a niche in the market for adhesives for installing wall and floor coverings. Mapei's mission was quite clear in Rodolfo Squinzi's mind: “being able to read the trend in the sector for adhesives and chemical products for building and always keeping one step ahead, so as to supply the market with innovative products serving its emerging needs”.

Initially the firm manufactured adhesives for linoleum and then for ceramics, stone materials, carpet, PVC and wood.When the Italian ceramics market exploded in the 1970s,Mapei was ready to take advantage of this great opportunity and managed to offer a wide range of special products designed to make laying tiles faster and safer by replacing conventional cementitious mortar.

Specialising in the products it manufactures was one of Mapei's strengths and the firm soon began marketing other types of adhesives, sealants, special mortars, waterproofers and admixtures for concreteAt the same time Rodolfo Squinzi, with the help of his son Giorgio, who graduated in Industrial Chemistry, confirmed another of the Company's strong points: the constant upgrading of products thanks to the work of a cutting-edge research centre. This decision enabled the Company to break onto foreign markets,graduall exporting an increasing amount of its own products. In 1978 Mapei's process of internationalising its manufacturing really began when it opened a factory in Canada.

Giorgio Squinzi pushed this process with strong determination, even after his father passed away in 1984.This made the firm expand across five continents with a number of manufacturing plants opening in strategic places for the world building market. This expansion process was geared to a clear strategy: each factory was to reflect the industrial culture of the place where it was located, and so had to be Canadian in Canada, French in France and American in the United States etc. Among the last and most prestigious acquisitions it is worth mentioning Sopro, a well-known German leading building chemicals manufacturer, which in 2002 joined the Mapei Group.

The idea behind this winning internationalising strategy is that only people who deeply know the local culture can really understand the needs of the people operating in that given area. In addition, each plant needs its own research laboratory to ensure quality control of its products, as quality is closely tied to the type of raw materials used in any given location.

The internationalising of the Company resulted in an almost vertical rise in turnover and made Mapei a world famous name everywhere from the Americas to the Far East, from Europe to Oceania and from the Middle East to Africa.

In 1994 the Company acquired the “white glue” Italian firm Vinavil.

For Mapei, one of Vinavil's main customers, this was an important way of taking upstream control of strategic raw materials (vinyl acetate polymers), which allowed the firm to extend its range of products.This was the start of a new phase in development, which has also continued into the third millennium with further acquisitions on the front of manufacturing finished products and in the integration of strategic raw materials into the manufacturing process.

So down the years the Mapei Group has incorporated a cement factory in Poland, Gorka Cement, a quality sand extraction industry in Italy, VAGA, and, in 2006, the German manufacturer of bituminous materials Rasco Bitumentechnik.

The third generation of the Squinzi family also joined the Company.

Mapei now owns 51 subsidiaries and 47 plants in 24 different countries.
