Founded in 1922 and based in Anzano del Parco (Como), Previero is the pioneer in the plastic mechanical recycling space, driving market innovation and delivering benchmarking quality standards. As of today, the Company is among the few players capable of offering turnkey recycling solutions covering the entire preprocessing phase (commonly named "from bale to flake") and addressing all types of feedstocks (i.e. PET, films, rubber).

With a workforce of around 110 employees, Previero focuses on R&D, engineering, and assembling/testing activities, which over the years led to a differentiated and integrated value proposition, matching the increasing need of global recyclers to identify technological partners capable of supporting them in the design and commissioning of the full recycling line.

Previero is the first platform investment from Ambienta’s most recent fund, Ambienta IV, the largest European Private Equity fund solely focused on companies that enable positive environmental change in their respective sectors.

The acquisition is in line with Ambienta strategy with positive impacts on volumes of materials recycled, CO2 emissions reduced, energy and landfill saved.

Ambienta will support Previero to become a global provider of integrated and sustainable recycling solutions.
