Quality and design, the true Italian business culture.
OCRIM is highly renowned across the globe for its Italian Made brand which is evidence of the production and logistic process that is carried out at the company’s factories in Cremona, based on research in quality and design, which are true conventions of Italian business culture.
Worldwide, the company OCRIM of Cremona is renowned as a reliable partner for the construction and supply of milling, feed and cereal processing plants. Its important commitment in research, customer care, training and communication has always been an incentive for innovative and productive teamwork.
Turnkey projects are one of OCRIM’s strong points, increasingly welcomed by international customers who decide to rely on a single partner who can guarantee a high professional level and respect programmed time.
OCRIM team meets the requirements of each customer, offering complete management of the whole civil and engineering process, and ensuring the delivery of the plant on time. Thanks to its extensive experience and great versatility, OCRIM is an irreplaceable partner also for the supply of machines only and in milling plant upgrade/modernization. That is why its clients regard this company as highly reliable and complete partner.
OCRIM boasts two sites in the city of Cremona: The original headquarters in Via Massarotti, which houses offices and parts of its production factories, and the premises at the canal port for some important production and logistics departments, and also for the Milling Hub, which includes the new Milling Hub Masterclass school.
OCRIM’s target is supplying its customers with long-lasting milling plants and efficient high-quality services. With this goal, innovative sanitization solutions have been introduced to reduce energy consumption and to minimize operating and maintenance costs.
As for maintenance strategies and management, OCRIM has developed the Modular Mill Concept, a truly innovative technology that enables stopping some parts of the grinding section while letting others run, thus granting certain output. The benefits deriving from that are clear and easily definable.
OCRIM team deems it is very important to be direct reference for its customers, also in the automation sector, and that is the reason why the company does not rely on external bodies to study and create systems for customers the team knows personally.
The general automation package @mill, the innovative @rollermills, which enables controlling the mills remotely via tablet, and the Immersive Reality and its resonance and important feedback all over the world, are futuristic systems created to improve and simplify the work activities of those who live the mill.
OCRIM is highly renowned across the globe for its Italian Made brand which is evidence of the production and logistic process that is carried out only at the company’s factories in Cremona, based on research in quality and design, which are true conventions of Italian business culture. To further support this approach, OCRIM acquired the company FBC, historical reference in the end-of-line sector and leader in bags palletization, by creating a business unit that collects values such as experience, know-how, quality and historicity. FBC’s entire production cycle has been integrated into OCRIM, thus strengthening the Italian Made concept, both in design and production. Thanks to this operation, a further tile has been added to cereal processing, and OCRIM has been confirmed again as ideal partner by increasingly demanding and quality-conscious customers.
Since 2015, OCRIM has been revolutionizing its know-how, although remaining attached to the Italian Made feeling. In fact, OCRIM is considered by its partners as key part of the food supply chain. The partnership with Bonifiche Ferraresi SpA, the biggest Italian agriculture company, has turned OCRIM into a true flagship for the entire production chain.
The goal of this important decision is to be a partner that works thoroughly, fully aware of the importance of control and management of the raw material, wheat, that will be processed by OCRIM machines before reaching consumers’ tables. Thanks to this important agreement and new skills development, many important initiatives have been created. First of all, the Milling Hub, a company that aims at building and managing the different milling plants on OCRIM’s premises in Cremona canal port, conceived together with Bonifiche Ferraresi. The Milling Hub aims to strengthen Italian agri-food sector, giving the food industries without their own milling plant the chance of having a customized one and benefitting from OCRIM team’s technical and technological skills.
They will be granted a traced and certified product (flour), thanks to accurate control by the agri-food chain, The Italian Agri-Food Chain Choice, of which OCRIM, Bonifiche Ferraresi and other important Italian companies are the founders. In addition to this, thanks to the great training experience, proved by the International School of Milling Technology (Scuola Internazionale di Tecnologia Molitoria) which has been training technicians and technologists since 1965, and in line with the Milling Hub project, the Milling Hub Masterclass has been created to give education a new vision. Due to increasingly higher demand from skilled people, OCRIM has thought the Milling Hub as a real facility/school and structure able to guarantee further comprehensive and qualified training. In fact, only a limited number of previously trained technicians, with a well-defined experience, can access the Masterclass in order to guarantee a high-degree training. 360° advanced training focusing on the knowledge of seeds, through cereal and pulses processing, to finished product sales.
On account of this corporate positive development, OCRIM’s R&D department has experimented such new strategies and state-of-the-art projects to be broadly acknowledged as unique in the milling sector and in full harmony with the novelties the company has been experiencing. The partnership between OCRIM and some Italian universities whose contribution is crucial to get valuable results to gain benefits for the milling sector in general, continues and is increasingly efficacious.
OCRIM’s various communication instruments to convey its orientation have been greatly changed in such as way as to finetune the company’s language to the new trends. In fact, the company boasts considerable visibility, more than in the past years, through both national and international publications, and via its three internet websites: the corporate website www.ocrim.com, one dedicated to the company’s museum www.ocrimcore.com, one dedicated to the blog www.ai-lati.it (in Italian) and www.ai-lati.eu (in English), strongly wanted by OCRIM as a real information provider for the agri-food industry and member companies. In addition to this, customized machines for its customers, events such as “Wheat, flour and…” (Grano, farina e …) and the hospitality of hO (Home OCRIM), events and project created to provide a close-up view of a company that is continuously and constantly evolving.
