CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF ORWAK BUSINESS IN ITALY

Empress 2000 celebrates 30 years as Orwak distributor in Italy. It all began in 1996, when Rodolfo Bandiera founded the company in Anzola Emilia in Metropolitan Bologna and it has remained a family business, now with his son Matteo Bandiera at its helm. The company has grown over time and made a significant mark building the Orwak business in the Italian market. Over the past thirty years, Empress 2000 has helped more than 2000 companies in various business segments achieve more profitable and sustainable waste management.

Orwak congratulates Empress 2000 on the 30^th anniversary and we are thankful for the Empress team’s commitment and dedication to Orwak and its persistence in establishing the business and selling the orange machines in Italy.

Initially, there was a strong focus on providing compaction solutions to hotels and restaurants, which undisputably was and is an important industry in Italy, but providing the full range of Orwak balers, briquette presses and waste compactors for small and large scale applications, Empress 2000 is now serving a wide variety of customers from retail and manufacturing industries to the fast expanding warehouse and distribution center segment. 

The anniversary is an important milestone that tells a story of expertise and reliability providing high quality compaction systems, specialized consultancy, and qualified technical assistance – always focused on operational efficiency and environmental sustainability.

It represents not only a moment to celebrate the highlights and accomplishments, but it is also an opportunity to look confidently toward the future with a constant commitment to offering increasingly effective, sustainable solutions that meet customers’ needs.

Matteo Bandiera: “Thank you to everyone who has shared values, vision, and trust with us over these 30 years. Our journey continues with the same passion as always.”
