Arte di Granito started in 1995 with only 4 employees. Its business steadily developed over the years, and the increasing demand in the Dutch marketplace for granite countertops led to a further business expansion. One of the first steps taken to improve the overall business was the installation of the BizTops TOPS system, developed in The Netherlands, to process the incoming countertop orders efficiently. In 1999, the company already produced 80 kitchen countertop commissions per week and reached the limits of its capacity in the former production location. Despite the high demand, new customers had to be refused. Therefore, it was decided to build a new factory.
The construction of the building started in 2000 and was carried out under the supervision of Arte di Granito. Further development of the software and the required specialized machinery took place in the same year. The main suppliers were Systraplan GmbH, which established the automated warehouse; L?ffler Maschinenbau GmbH of Germany, which delivered the automatic sawing equipment; and CMS Brembana S.p.A. of Italy, which provided the CNC equipment. The full integration of the production equipment with the order processing software was carried out and supervised by BizTops, bv.
