Italian company to use Lectra leather-cutting solution
Laziale Interni Auto, an Italian supplier of leather cut parts for the automotive sector, is to use Lectra’s Versalis leather-cutting solution in its updated digital cutting room.

Laziale specialises in the production of headrests and armrests for vehicle interiors. It cuts, sews and assembles interior components for major automotive manufacturers as well as for the rail and aeronautics industry. The company has two production units in central Italy.

Laziale has been a Lectra partner since 2005. In 2014, it began using Lectra’s Vector fabric-cutting solution and subsequently decided to move its automotive leather production from manual die-cutting to a digital process. It purchased a first Versalis machine in 2015 for its plant in the Italian region of Lazio.

“Our Versalis allow us to achieve much greater productivity and without the need to retool, we can meet new requirements faster than we ever could before, said Renato Clement, Laziale production unit manager.

“By making the switch to a fully digitalized leather cutting process, Laziale Interni Auto can be sure to keep up with carmaker demand now and into the future," said Choussy Bedouet, chief marketing and communications officer at Lectra.
