Mappi America, Inc.

MAPPI INTERNATIONAL: CONTINUOUS SEARCH FOR INNOVATION Mappi International has been designing and manufacturing high quality tempering systems for the glass industry since 1993. Hundreds of plants installed all over the world are a demonstration of the company’s steady growth, important investments in research and development, uncompromising quality, and attention to the specific needs of each and every customer. Mappi International manufactures each and every product in-house and therefore has complete quality control of all components, guaranteeing the highest quality performance and functionality of its machines – constantly. Mappi America, located in Florida, enables the customer service department to reach each and every plant within 24 hours. Thanks to collaboration with Siemens, Mappi machines are, first in the entire glass industry, recognized as ‘Powered by Siemens’. This means that they are ready to implement all MindSphere applications, ready to enter the world of Industry 4.0, ready to change the way of working in the glass industry, with total integration between the furnace and all production processes, from planning to quality reports. Mappi’s path of innovation continues with Supertemper, the exclusive feature that opens up a new frontier of fireproof glass: a furnace equipped with Supertemper can produce E30 certified glass for fire resistance. From design to assistance, quality is at the centre of every thought and action of Mappi. This quality is found both in the design and in the range of products, where machines are different in size, technical solutions, mechanical engineering, and software solutions. User-friendly machines that have been designed to minimize downtime during shutdown and subsequent restart, along with the constant perfection of glass and important energy savings, show just how Mappi produces tempering furnaces that go beyond perfection day after day. Nancy Mammaro, CEO of Mappi says: “Our payoff, ‘beyond glass perfection’, sums up in three words our everyday aim shared at every level and in every area in Mappi.” Over the years, Mappi has never changed its aim: to become the leader in tempering furnaces and manufacturing, and to constantly increase quality and customization to satisfy the specific needs of each customer.
