First preview in Umbria ahead of the machine’s international presentation

Robert, here is a website-ready draft in English. I based the factual details on the official Agriumbria event pages, the official exhibitor catalogue entry for URANO S.R.L., and Rapanelli’s current website listing for the RAMEF 2950 FR.

Rapanelli International will take part in Agriumbria 2026, the 57th edition of the national exhibition dedicated to agriculture, livestock and food, taking place from 27 to 29 March 2026 at Umbriafiere in Bastia Umbra. Visitors will be able to meet the team at the URANO stand, Padiglione 7, Stand 62.

The event will mark the first preview in Umbria of the RAMEF 2950 FR, part of Rapanelli’s olive oil processing equipment range. Presented ahead of its international launch, the machine reflects the company’s current engineering direction: systems developed to combine process reliability, separation performance and continuity of operation within modern olive oil mills.

For Rapanelli, presenting the RAMEF 2950 FR at Agriumbria carries a precise meaning. It brings a new-stage machine to the company’s home region, within a trade fair that remains a reference point for the agricultural and agri-food supply chain. It also represents a coherent step in the ongoing relaunch of the Rapanelli brand in olive oil processing, building on an engineering heritage that dates back to 1922.

Agriumbria offers the right setting for this first public presentation: a professional audience, direct contact with operators, and a context in which machinery is evaluated for real operating value, maintainability and technical consistency. In that sense, the preview is not only an exhibition moment, but also an opportunity to show the direction Rapanelli is taking in the development of its olive oil technologies.

Visitors interested in Rapanelli’s olive oil processing solutions and engineering approach are welcome at the URANO stand, Padiglione 7, Stand 62, throughout the exhibition.

Rapanelli International is proud to support “Olive Oil as a Mediterranean Bridge,” the event taking place on 30 March 2026 in Tripoli as part of the Week of Italian Cuisine in the World.

The initiative brings together institutions, technical experts, producers, and industry professionals around a shared theme: olive oil as a symbol of culture, cooperation, quality, and economic development across the Mediterranean.

The event creates an important moment of dialogue between Italy and Libya, combining history, business, technical know-how, and food culture in a single occasion. Its programme reflects the breadth of the olive oil sector, with contributions from institutional representatives, specialists, producers, and professionals working to strengthen quality, knowledge exchange, and cross-border collaboration.

For Rapanelli International, supporting this event is fully aligned with the company’s identity and long-term vision. Rapanelli’s roots in olive oil processing date back to 1922, and the company continues to see olive oil not simply as a product, but as a field where technology, tradition, and international relationships generate lasting value.

This sponsorship reflects a clear strategic belief: olive oil can be a real bridge between countries, supply chains, and professional communities. In markets where agricultural development, technical reliability, and international cooperation are essential, initiatives like this help create the conditions for trust, exchange, and future collaboration.

Rapanelli International is especially pleased to support an event that gives equal importance to technical competence and cultural value. By bringing together institutional dialogue, production expertise, tasting culture, and culinary application, the initiative highlights the many dimensions that make olive oil such a meaningful product for the Mediterranean region.

As a sponsor of this event, Rapanelli International reaffirms its commitment to supporting projects and conversations that promote quality, innovation, and international cooperation in the olive oil sector.

By supporting “Olive Oil as a Mediterranean Bridge,” Rapanelli International confirms its belief that technical excellence, cultural heritage, and international cooperation can work together to create real opportunities for the future of the olive oil sector.

Rapanelli International Launches Rapanelli Procurement as Dedicated Institutional Division

Rapanelli International formally established Rapanelli Procurement as a specialised division focused on institutional procurement and complex international supply projects.

The brand was created to respond to the growing demand for structured sourcing, technical specification management, and execution reliability within development programs and large-scale agricultural and industrial initiatives.

While Rapanelli International continues to operate as an engineering-driven manufacturer, Rapanelli Procurement was designed to operate with a distinct mandate: managing multi-supplier sourcing, tender compliance, documentation control, and project coordination for bilateral and multilateral initiatives.

Over the past decade, the division has supported projects involving agricultural machinery, industrial equipment, and technical systems in challenging markets, working with international organisations, government entities, and development agencies.

By creating a dedicated procurement arm, the Group strengthened its ability to:

• Navigate institutional tender frameworks
• Ensure technical conformity across multi-product lots
• Coordinate global sourcing and inspection
• Mitigate execution risks in fragile or logistically complex environments

“Rapanelli Procurement was created to bring structure and technical discipline to international supply projects,” said Massimiliano Rapanelli, CEO of Rapanelli International. “It allows us to operate with the rigor required by institutional clients while maintaining the engineering mindset that defines our Group.”

The creation of Rapanelli Procurement represents a strategic extension of Rapanelli International’s core philosophy: delivering engineered solutions that work, where they are needed most.

Rapanelli International has completed the full acquisition of Inoltra, marking a decisive step in the structural evolution of the Group.

More than a corporate transaction, the integration reflects a deliberate strategy to consolidate engineering, procurement, and logistics within a single operational architecture.

Founded in 1922, Rapanelli has historically been recognized for its mechanical engineering expertise in olive oil processing and centrifugal separation technologies. Over the past decade, the Group expanded its activities through Rapanelli Procurement, developing strong capabilities in institutional procurement and complex international projects.

With the full integration of Inoltra, the Group now formalizes a three-pillar structure:

• Industrial Engineering & Manufacturing

• Institutional Procurement (Rapanelli Procurement)

• International Logistics & Project Execution (Inoltra)

This consolidated model enables Rapanelli International to manage the entire project lifecycle, from technical design and equipment manufacturing to sourcing, global transport, and on-site implementation.

The integration strengthens operational control, improves supply chain coordination, and enhances execution reliability in challenging and high-risk markets.

“This is a structural step forward for the Group,” said Massimiliano Rapanelli, CEO of Rapanelli International. “By aligning engineering, procurement, and logistics under one integrated framework, we are increasing our ability to deliver complete solutions with greater efficiency, transparency, and long-term value for our clients.”

The acquisition aligns with Rapanelli’s 2025 strategic direction centered on Best Value for Money, combining product quality, engineering know-how, procurement expertise, and logistical efficiency within a unified system.

In an increasingly complex global environment, this evolution positions Rapanelli International not only as a manufacturer, but as a fully integrated engineering and execution partner capable of delivering turnkey solutions across agricultural, industrial, and development sectors.
