The pinnacle of efficiency for excellent flours

In 1948, the Superior mill was publicly exhibited for the first time at the Cremona Fair, in Piazza Marconi, just steps from the Torrazzo. Its appearance on the milling scene left everyone astounded. With its sifting machines on the ground floor and roller mills on the upper floor, it was assembled and tested in our workshop. Then, it was disassembled and exported worldwide, starting with Central and South America, where it was reassembled. It quickly became ready for use, overcoming the complexities of transportation and assembly common at the time.

In the 1980s, we introduced the evolution of the first Superior: the MCA, a compact milling unit. This unit consisted of four modules, each comparable to a 40-foot High Cube container and equipped with pre-assembled machinery. Upstream, it featured wetting and storage cells along with the cleaning and milling line, while downstream were the cells for storage and bagging. The new Superior, exported to developing countries, enabled new entrepreneurs in North Africa and Eastern Europe to become great and experienced millers.

But the Superior is not just a memory. In the 2000s, we re-introduced our historic excellence with a modern twist. It’s a customizable cube that, in minimal space and time, encapsulates all of Ocrim’s expertise and technologies. And, even today, it continues to produce excellent flours worldwide.
