The CPL Fabbrika story began in 1982<\/b>, when Franco Ratto, together with another partner, established <\/span>\u201c<\/span>CPL<\/span>\u201d<\/span>.<\/span> The company was set up in Albissola Marina, just a few meters from the sea that laps against Italy\u2019s Ligurian coastline. Initially, the company primarily worked in the fields of graphic design and communications.<\/p>\n

<\/span>However, over the next two decades<\/b>, the business gradually shifted towards supplying equipment for screen printing.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Creative graphic design made way for absolute precision: when advertising for staff we were after people who could identify a 0.3 mm line with the naked eye.<\/p>\n

In 2003, we launched our first e-commerce site under the brand name CPL Fabbrika.
\n<\/b>Customers loved the ease with which they could simply order their screenprinting screens online: they just had to choose the size, send us the graphics files, and within a couple of days all the material they needed was delivered to their front door. Today this is completely normal, but in 2003 it seemed like something out of a science fiction novel.
\nAnd today, our team continues to assist all our customers: algorithms might be useful in certain circumstances, but they can never be a substitute for people.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Since 2003<\/b> we<\/span>\u2019<\/span>ve responded to thousands of e-mails from our customers and, just as importantly, from those who aren’t our customers.<\/span> We don\u2019t differentiate, that\u2019s what we\u2019ve always been recognized for: it\u2019s important for us to share our knowledge.<\/p>\n

Over the years we came to realise that some of the questions were really interesting: so, we started posting them, along with the answers, on our online blogs, thus enabling dozens of screen printers and printers to find the answers to even their smallest doubts.<\/p>\n

We even started designing and developing our own screen printing equipment.
\n<\/b>Indeed, it\u2019s always been our belief that a screen printing workshop shouldn\u2019t just be possible for a handful of people with plenty of money to spend. But we\u2019ve also never been fans of low-cost, low-quality equipment.
\n<\/span>So, we decided to take a fresh approach, and today the equipment and accessories designed by CPL Fabbrika are renowned and loved for being \u201cno-frills and long-lasting\u201d (comments from our customers can be read here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

On the back of all this experience<\/b>, our founder, Franco Ratto, wrote a screen printing manual, which has received rave reviews, particularly from those who are just starting out in screen printing.<\/p>\n

Today, CPL Fabbrika produces and sells more than seven thousand products throughout Europe<\/b>, serving printers and screen printers across the entire continent.<\/span> Each and every day we communicate with customers via e-mail in four different languages, answer dozens of technical and sales inquiries, and collaborate with schools, artists, small businesses and major companies.
\n<\/span>Seeing those who\u2019ve chosen us gradually grow and build their workshops over time – for us, there’s simply no greater satisfaction.<\/p>\n
