"The majority stake in FR Engraving S.r. is related to our innovation strategy, which in recent years has been aimed at focusing efforts on our core technologies.

Industry diversification
This new acquisition is another example of Fagor Automation's strategy, whose main objective is to continue to strengthen its commitment to technology.
