Hi Gualtiero, tell us! What does your company do and what is the innovation that distinguishes it?<\/h3>\n

Coronet is a company that has 50 years of history and deals with the manufacture of synthetic leathers for applications in the clothing, footwear and car interiors sectors. We focus on eco-compatibility by developing innovative products with low or no environmental impact. The technology we have invested in is horizontal and vertical integration.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

What if you had to explain vertical and horizontal integration to your grandmother?<\/h3>\n

It allows you to automatically mix the ingredients of our recipe to make our synthetic leather. A bit like a big mixer!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n
\n

What does innovation mean for you?<\/h3>\n

Eco-compatibility, because Coronet has a vocation for everything that is green and for the creation of recyclable and environmentally friendly products.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What PID services did you use for your business project?<\/h3>\n

It all started with the Selfie 4.0 digital maturity self-assessment questionnaire, after which we were contacted by a Digital Promoter who came to our office to learn more about
\nguided evaluation with Zoom 4.0. We have obtained funding to innovate our business projects.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
