Description
Restructuring works of the main factory of Perfetti van Melle, the Italian leading company in the production and marketing of chewing gum and candies (founded in 1946 by the Perfetti brothers), to adapt its image to the brand’s value.
The project, developed by Marco Casamonti’s Studio Archea, included the construction of a new automated warehouse, a picking area, a new office building, a concierge and a winter garden, as well as the reorganization of the internal road network, the construction of new parking spaces for the employees and the redesign of the large freen areas in front of the plant.
The industrial buildings have been ennobled with a glass and titanium zinc alloy (Rheinzink) facade cladding, while in the shipping warehouse (picking) a system of diffusion of natural light ensures a constant a uniform lightning.
