For over 40 years, our aim has been to satisfy our customers with
state-of-the-art production, the use of high-quality raw materials
and with a special focus on new technologies.

Our History

1979

We found Italiana Lame, in Caronno Pertusella in the province of Varese, and from the very beginning we place ourselves at the service of the cartographic industry.
In the first decade we design and produce specific perforating and cutting threads for the paper industry and the first Ink Blades for graphic machines.

1985

We start producing Scraping and Coating Blades in special steelfor paper mills on the Italian and European markets.
We also start manufacturing Creping Blades for the production of Tissue paper, which we primarily distribute to retailers in the sector.

1990

We specialise in the grinding of steel webs for paper tissue printing, as well as Rotogravure and Flexographic Printing of flexible packaging.

1998

We ensure the compliance of our production processes with ISO 9001 certification.

2001

Following a specific technical and production upgrade and to the advice of some technicians from the paper industry, we launch the production of Creping Blades with ceramic coatings, thanks to the exclusive collaboration of a world leader specialised in wear-resistant coatings.

2010

In addition to the production of Traditional Pre-Shaped Doctor Blades, we also produce new varieties, each meeting specific technical printing requirements and the market demand for high, long-lasting print quality even at high speeds.

By means of specific in-house technical and production engineering adaptations and in-depth development of raw materials with leading European manufacturers, we supply Doctor blades made of high-wear special steels, coated special steels and doctor blades with special grinding profiles.

2014

Italiana Lame hands over from its founding partner to his descendants, thus giving way to a second generation with a solid background of traditional experience and an eye focused on future innovation.
