about us
Our story: family and innovation
Marino was founded on the passion and dedication of Vincenzo and Grazia, who began their journey into the world of analysis in 1986.
We have had a customer-oriented vision from the outset. We support our customers through all phases and business processes, ensuring we always follow certified procedures.
Over time, our team has expanded to include dynamic, versatile professionals who can support our customers and all their needs, from quality control to product development, making improvements to organoleptic characteristics, research and development, defining technical specifications, designing and revising process procedures, validating products, performing applied testing plans, and much more.
MARINO is much more than a testing and analytical control laboratory. Our Marino Servizi department also provides customers with technical assistance and consultancy services so that they can obtain certification for their management, supply chain, and product systems, according to BRC, BRC/IOP, IFS and other standards. We also conduct risk analyses on HACCP systems, first and second-party audits, process checks, and company training in various disciplines. In addition, we assist with legislation, best practices, and expert reports.
The three siblings Maria, Assunta and Giorgio have joined forces to continue this wonderful journey under the guidance of their parents.
MISSION
"Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never let you down.”
We chose “Study Nature, Love Nature, Stay Close To Nature – It Will Never Let You Down” as our corporate mission to highlight its importance for the environment, research purposes, and the people who work with us. If customers are the reason our company exists, our employees are the bedrock of what we do.
As a family business, we pass on our way of living, believing, and thinking to future generations, thus creating a working environment that facilitates the company’s growth and the cultural and harmonious growth of all the people who work for us.
We feel that we have a responsibility towards those around us, because we care about the future of ourselves and coming generations. We strive to provide a healthy and safe working environment for our employees while also making sure we reduce the environmental impact of our production processes as much as possible. It is an ambitious journey that involves continuous transformations, which push us to do better and better.
In addition to providing training on quality and safety topics, we also organise technical refresher courses and specialised courses for specific sectors. In addition, 65% of MARINO’s processes are digitised, guaranteeing lower paper consumption and better traceability. We intend to increase this number to 80% by 2023.
