Based in Lucca, the company has eleven overseas branches located in three continents (Europe, America and Asia).
Fabio Perini starts his activity in 1960 when he invents a machinery for the automatic cut of tissue paper.
During the '1980s and the '1990s further branches are opened in Asia (Yokohama, 1984; Hong Kong, 1985; Fuji, 1991), Europe (London, 1984) and United States (Miami, 1990).
In about 20 years, thanks to many original design patents,[2] the company Fabio Perini transformed itself from a one-man business to a multinational enterprise able to cover up the 75% of the worldwide market of the paper making industry and the tissue converting machinery.
After that, the growing of the company goes on; three new overseas branches are opened in Asia: two selling offices (Singapore, 1994; Seoul, 1995) and one manufacturing plant (Shanghai, 2002).
