Through continuous investment in engineering, strategic acquisitions of historic specialist brands, and a relentless focus on performance, SCM has helped define many of the technologies that are now industry standards.

Today, SCM Group:

Employs over 4,000 people worldwide
Operates three major production centres in Italy
Generates approximately €900 million in consolidated turnover
Invests around 7% of turnover into research and development
