AUSTIN, TEXAS, – October 28, 2021 – Dover Fueling Solutions (DFS), a part of Dover Corporation and a leading global provider of advanced customer-focused technologies, services and solutions in the fuel and convenience retail industries, is pleased to announce the opening of its brand-new production facility in Milan, Italy. This large, high-grade facility consolidates the ProGauge and Wayne Fueling Systems locations in Italy into one modernized manufacturing and office space.
All ProGauge automatic tank gauge (ATG) solutions — probes, consoles and 3D laser scan automatic tank calibration — are now solely designed and manufactured at the new facility. The hub is also home to ProGauge sales, customer services and product management departments, making the new and improved Milan factory the center for all things ATG related. In addition, the Wayne Fueling Systems Italy sales and support office, including IT and finance, recently relocated to the same facility.
After officially opening its doors last month, the Milan factory supports leaner operational efficiencies and future expansion for the ProGauge product lines while improving DFS’ operations within Europe. With more products being manufactured on-site, DFS is now able to offer an extended product range to customers with shorter lead times.
Acting as the central ATG hub for Europe, the Milan facility will also be able to provide support for the OPW Fuel Management Systems (OPW FMS) ATG product lines. This will enable the sales team outside of the U.S. to efficiently service new and legacy customers by supplying OPW FMS ATG solutions direct from Milan in bulk, resulting in reduced lead times and improved shipping costs.
DFS Senior Business Development Manager, Fergus Heading said, “We are already a global supplier, and the Milan facility will help us to develop and manufacture new and exciting products for our expanding customer base."
DFS ATG Business Unit General Manager, Stefano Scatena added, “This factory provides the base for future expansion, allowing us an exciting opportunity to grow our business at a faster rate and reach customers more efficiently. Our 60 member team is delighted to work in this new facility, and we are looking forward to further growth in the future.”
