Consorzio Polo Tecnologico Magona (CPTM) is a consortium founded in 1997 and operating since 1998; the ancient industrial area "Magona di Cecina" was recovered through the realization of a private research center of excellence.
Municipalities of Cecina and Rosignano M.mo, Livorno provincial administration and University of Pisa provided buildings and scientific instrumentations.

The research activity is totally commissioned by partners and other companies.
CPTM is the connection point between the companies that are looking for new solutions and the applied research, carried out in synergy by the expertise gained by universities, engineering companies and manufacturing companies. The know-how ranges from the chemical and materials engineering, to the environmental protection and safety against the risks from dangerous substances.

In 2002, CPTM obtained the Quality management system certification ISO-9001 and became one of the R&D laboratories of excellence registered by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR).

The research work conducted by CPTM concerns the development of innovative chemical processes through their experimentation. CPTM can carry out all the analysis you need for the laboratory testing at first and, later, in the pilot scale process simulation.
