cOMPANY’S HISTORY
SCN was born in 1973 from the unification of some small local realities specialized in bodywork activities. After some years, the founder members Marzio Ascari and Ercole Cantaroni, who are still participating in the Company as business partners, have developed also the painting on carbon components. The experience acquired by Ascari, during his work with Lamborghini, has helped the Company in a quick development in the painting activities but also in the classic car restoration activities. For almost 50 years, SCN has been a point of reference for these activities: carbon components painting, classic car restoration, traditional bodywork for prestigious car manufacturers such as Pagani, Lamborghini, Ferrari.

After this transfer the Company has started a development and innovation path focused on the services/products growing by keeping the core of the handcrafted activities, SCN’s historic peculiar feature. The arrival of the three managers has given a managerial mark to the Company allowing the development of a five-year business plan characterized by five phases:
1

Further development projects
The creation of a new plant of 1.200 meters is the most important project in the immediate future. The aim is to create a state-of-the-art plant for the painting of carbon components with the utilization of new equipment. The investment of about 1 million euros will affect the infrastructures and the equipment but, above all, the management part of the working process which will be managed by an innovative sw and a RFID system for the tracing of the individual component during the process of production. The company development model is based on a basic principle: Keeping the competences and the SCN handcrafted historical processes by the insertion of new technologies and managerial competences aimed to the maintenance/growth of the quality of the product modernizing the management and the business processes.
The birth of the Communication & Image function proves that the Company looks ahead promoting the capacities and the competences through the new current means of communication.
Our development is based on three different types of business:
- Traditional bodywork (affiliation with important insurances societies and car maker of primary importance)
The presence of the founder members, Marzio Ascari and Ercole Cantaroni, is a guarantee on the quality of the product, the three managers from Turin are the foundations for the modern development of the Company.
