On Monday 18 October 2021 we celebrated our 25th anniversary with all our employees.

A week-long audit with Middleby personnel specialized on company procedures has just concluded. Since Proxaut was founded in 1996, many procedures have been introduced as the company has grown in terms of resources and production. These are essentially a series of internal rules, protocols and “policies” to make internal processes clearer and more efficient. 

On the 18th of October, PROXAUT expects to celebrate the 25th anniversary of its constitution, which took place on 18 October 1996.

For over seven years in Proxaut, Vanna Sola has always dedicated herself to the Purchasing Department within Proxaut and in October 2022, her role as Manager was officially reconfirmed.

The commitment shown in recent years in the management of suppliers and production within the company has made the difference. Many times her contribution has allowed us to carry out unique and highly important projects. Mother and wife, Vanna has always had to juggle work and family, but thanks to Proxaut's "Worklife balance" project, she has always managed to bring the professional and private spheres together. In fact, even before these policies became an object of interest from companies, Proxaut has always been at the side of its employees and collaborators to combine career and private life.

The Paolo Mascagni Award is a prize established by Confindustria Emilia Area Centro, in collaboration with Il Resto del Carlino, in memory of the entrepreneur Paolo Mascagni, who passed away in 2011.

Great accomplishments do not come out of nowhere, first they must be a vision and then realized, step by step, with passion and patience. The path can be long and sometimes on the journey one has to reflect and even take steps backwards to move forward. When the finish line is reached, there is the outstanding reward of having achieved a goal, even if it was very challenging.

This is actually what happened to Mr. Stefano Ballotti when he decided to find a way to build a solid future for his company, Proxaut. Since the founding Proxaut in 1996, he always strived for growth. In fact, he expanded Proxaut from just a few people, to an industrial company of more than 50 people, in over 25 years of hard work.

A few years ago, Stefano Ballotti realised that, like a son who had come of age, PROXAUT needed redirect its business toward a new future. He knew it was time to look for an opportunity to continue building upon what he had worked so hard to create. Then, he then connected with Middleby Corporation, through an important Italian customer of Proxaut called VE.MA.C., based in Castelnuovo Rangone, Modena (Italy). The customer specialised in processing lines for dry cured meats and salami, and had been part of Middleby since 2018. This was the moment he realized that something special could happen.

“KEEP GOING” is the pay-off that Proxaut has chosen to stand out starting from December 2020, to underline its intention to move forward and grow, despite the unfavourable period.

Less plastic, more green solutions

Who said that only bottled water is good water? At Proxaut, we have a real source of water, which flows both at room temperature and chilled…The miracle? A water purifier installation from which all employees and collaborators can draw high-quality drinking water that comes from the municipal aqueduct.

In collaboration with a team of UNIMORE researchers called ARS Control, PROXAUT is pleased to present the SIRENE project.

This is the new section, that has just been created, to present the team of people who make up Proxaut's workforce. The section, renamed "Our Faces", was designed to present to the public a number of strategic figures, just arrived and already present, whose contribution will be crucial in the near future.
