THE FUTURE LIES WITHIN
THE FIRM
The vocation of Fenzi towards technological advance has been
translated into an ultra-modern R&D department, aiming to
encourage synergies and grouping in a single structure all the
professional skills and scientific means required for research.
Research work.
The R&D department is engaged on three fronts: study of new
products, development of existing ones and the need to meet increasingly
strict environmental laws. While this latter aspect is among the
most critical, and awareness at the firm has at times been ahead
of later legal requirements, the development of new formulae and
new products is the most keenly followed by technical and managerial
staff. This is because new ideas have definite commercial value
and is also due to the intellectual challenge involved in their
creation.
Who dictates the trends.
It is the market that in reality commissions research –
directly, with the monitoring of daily commercial activity, and
indirectly, when it is possible to see in advance a new trend
and develop a product which matches it.
