Welcome to Our Company
It was the 3rd of May 1949, when Dante Corno decided to found his own company registering it at the local Chamber of Commerce; it was actually the first company in Lecco producing dies. He held his father in such a high esteem, that he decided to give his new company his father's name, Marco. He rented a small room and bought his very first machine tool, a shaper, which today is placed, as memory of the company history, at the entrance hall of the very modern Molteno facility.
The old company Corno Marco Italy made available its know-how, experience and resources to the Meccanica H7 group to allow them the founding of a new company called CM Evolution. The strategic alliance between CM Evolution and Meccanica H7 with complementary productions and advanced expertise can grant huge synergies to the group, along with skills integration, large production capacity, strong financials and especially high competitiveness in a global scenario. CM Evolution has a total workforce of approximately 42 employees and a consolidated turnover of approximately 6/7 million euro. Our goal is to put available to our customers this enhanced organization, aiming to a long term and mutually fruitful co-operation on a worldwide basis.
