Eurobrillance has invested €7.5 million into facility expansions and automation to support surging international demand. The manufacturer, which now employs 62 people, plans to add 35 additional staff as it targets a doubling of its total business this year.
Why it matters
The investment underscores the competitive pressure for manufacturers to balance automation with rapid headcount scaling to maintain international market share. By upgrading to integrated ERP and AI systems, the company seeks to sustain its high-output, seven-day-a-week operating model.
Eurobrillance has doubled its staff from 31 in September 2025 to 62 currently, backed by a €7.5 million investment. The firm exports 90% of its total output, with 46% of production flowing to EU markets and 44% to regions outside the European Union.
The players
Eurobrillance
An export-focused manufacturing firm that operates on a continuous, three-shift schedule to service global markets.
Plastigraf
A Treviso-based partner firm that began collaborating with Eurobrillance in 2024.
The details
The capital deployment focuses on building extensions and new machinery to accommodate continuous, three-shift production cycles running seven days a week. Beyond physical infrastructure, the firm is integrating new automation, artificial intelligence, and ERP systems to manage its high export volume. This strategy allows the company to scale operations while maintaining the output levels required to service markets both within and outside the EU.
Timeline
Eurobrillance and Plastigraf initiated a working relationship in 2024.
The company employed 31 full-time staff members in September 2025.
The firm reached a current workforce size of 62 employees as of September 2026.
Market Landscape
This move follows the broader industry trend of manufacturers simultaneously digitizing through AI while scaling labor to meet export demand. It highlights the reliance on continuous seven-day operational models to capture market share in both EU and non-EU territories.
Operators should evaluate their own capacity utilization metrics against the firm's seven-day, three-shift model to determine if automation can bridge existing output gaps. Managers should also monitor how the integration of AI-driven ERP systems impacts the cost-per-unit in highly export-dependent businesses.
The takeaway
Rapidly scaling export operations requires a simultaneous commitment to physical capacity and integrated digital management systems. Businesses aiming for similar growth should monitor their headcount-to-output ratio to ensure that new hires provide a clear return on capital relative to their automation spend.
