AUSTRIA – The Felder Group and EMC srl have been working together successfully for over two decades.

The two companies have now reached an agreement on a deeper technology partnership, which sees the Felder Group acquiring a majority share in EMC srl, thus integrating EMC into the corporate group.

The special focus here lies in the area of sanding technology. The Felder Group and EMC offer cutting-edge, end-to-end sanding solutions for all areas of the secondary woodworking industry.

From entry-level machines to individual innovation solutions and high-end products, the partnership with Felder can cover the customer’s entire process chain within the sanding technology sector.

“As a full-range provider in the field of secondary woodworking, the further development and integration of EMC into the Felder Group was the logical and most forward-looking step. With EMC, we have gained an innovative technology partner who has all the technological and

soft-skills to cover the process chain in the sanding segment.“ said Tamara Felder, Chief Marketing Officer Felder Group

The production sites in Tirol (Austria) and in Imola (Italy) will be retained in their entirety. The research and development as well as the production facilities in Imola will remain in place and will be expanded

subsequently. International distribution and service for woodworking in the field of sanding technology will be taken over largely by the Felder Group. The existing sales structures of Felder and EMC will remain in place.
