In 2022, the value of SACMI's consolidated order book was three times higher than pre-pandemic levels. Against a backdrop of strong market demand that lasted the whole year and in the wake of a fast-paced recovery that began in 2021, SACMI significantly increased volumes and market shares across all the sectors in which it operates.

Today, SACMI is a more solid, stronger industrial Group: our customers’ response to a new approach centered on sustainability and digitalization has been highly promising. The economic result was the best in SACMI's history. However, numerous exogenous factors continued to impact markets in 2022.

The Russia-Ukraine conflict, spiraling energy prices, supply chain issues and overloaded logistics systems – already under pressure in the wake of the pandemic – continued to obstruct smooth growth. Such factors have, naturally, affected our customers’ investment plans, albeit in different ways in different countries and industries.
