The May 2012 major earthquake striking Emilia Romagna Region had irreparably damaged the building used as offices as well as the company canteen, changing rooms and data processing centre.

In just six months, Magneti Marelli managed to complete the reconstruction works in compliance with the new anti-seismic regulations issued by the Emilia Romagna region which require a reticular containing structure made of steel. This steel structure penetrates 16 metres into the ground and provides external support to the building, thus making it earthquake-proof. The works concerned the two-storied building for a total of 1,500sq m.

The new building is also environmentally-friendly since the improvements made include a new energy class that is more efficient compared to the previous one. This was achieved thanks to the use of innovative materials and LED internal lighting.
