E.M. Company is an Italian manufacturer that specializes in luxury fashion accessories. Its commitment to quality lies at the heart of its operations, and is supported by an in-house quality control laboratory that ensures each piece meets the standards required by leading luxury brands. What sets E.M. Company apart is the ability to combine traditional craftsmanship with advanced technology—a balance that is essential in the highly competitive field of luxury fashion accessories.
The Challenge: Building an Independent Quality Control System
In the industry of luxury accessories, quality must be guaranteed from the earliest stages of production. E.M. Company’s clients expect more than just elegant design; they need products that perform well under challenging conditions, such as extreme temperatures or high humidity.
In the past, the company relied on external laboratories for its quality testing. This approach involved long waiting times, high costs, and less control over the processes.
To overcome these limitations, E.M. Company chose to bring quality control in-house. They selected S.A.M.A. Italia as its partner to develop a fully independent testing setup.
The Solution: Advanced Quality Control Equipment for Fashion Accessories
To help E.M. Company build a reliable internal testing system, SAMA Italia supplied two essential instruments:
- Climate Chamber: The climate chamber makes it possible to simulate extreme temperatures, testing how well materials hold up under thermal stress. This is particularly important for assessing whether accessories can withstand conditions such as long-distance transport or prolonged exposure to sunlight.
For E.M. Company, these tests are especially valuable to verify the durability of surface treatments and finishes, ensuring that both appearance and performance remain consistent over time.
- Salt Spray Cabinet: The salt spray cabinet creates a highly corrosive environment to test accessories’ resistance to humidity, sea air, and other harsh conditions. For E.M. Company, these tests are essential to help confirm the resilience and long-term stability of their products in environments where moisture and corrosion are present.
Through these simulations, E.M. Company can reliably confirm that its materials and finishes meet the high performance and durability standards, demanded by the luxury market today.
Training as a Strategic Priority
From the very beginning, E.M. Company recognized the strategic value of staff training. By investing in dedicated and ongoing training programs, they were able to quickly capitalize on the benefits of SAMA Tools® equipment.
And as a result, they are now benefiting from this investment. The team is now equipped to manage testing independently, even when new staff join. With regular refresher courses, the company maintains a high level of expertise, ensuring consistent and efficient use of this technology.
This approach has helped E.M. Company improve internal processes, strengthen product reliability, and reinforce its position as a company that values know-how and internal competence.
Regular Calibration for Continuous Quality Assurance
In collaboration with S.A.M.A. Italia, E.M. Company has implemented an annual calibration routine to maintain high testing accuracy and gather long-term performance data. This ongoing monitoring allows the company to spot trends and fine-tune production processes as needed.
Introducing climate and salt spray chambers has made a significant and immediate impact:
- Waste Reduction: In-house testing helps identify potential material issues before production. This helps reduce waste and improve the use of available resources.
- Greater Operational Flexibility: The ability to run tests internally has accelerated production timelines and has given E.M. Company greater flexibility in adapting to customer needs or market shifts.
- Durability Assurance: Resistance and corrosion testing confirm that accessories can withstand real-world conditions. Having full control over this process ensures better oversight and greater attention to detail.
Showroom and International Presence
E.M. Company welcomes clients into a carefully designed showroom where they can explore the full product range in a dedicated space. The company also takes part in major international trade fairs such as Lineapelle (Milan and New York) and Première Vision (Paris), where it presents new collections and shares the progress made in quality testing and process control.
The seasonal collection is updated regularly, combining Italian craftsmanship with select imported components.
To meet increasing demand and support continuous growth, the company has also expanded production to include international facilities—balancing efficiency with a continued focus on quality.
Conclusion: Growth Through Quality
The decision to invest in advanced quality control systems has proven to be a a turning point for E.M. Company. With improved internal processes, greater autonomy, and a more structured approach to testing, the company has seen a tangible boost in product quality.
With the support of S.A.M.A. Italia’s testing systems and specialized training programs, E.M. Company has built a robust verification process—ready to meet the exacting standards of the luxury accessories market.
This is the story of a company committed to exceeding industry expectations. By blending artisanal tradition with technological innovation, E.M. Company continues to grow—delivering high-performance products that earn the trust of even the most discerning clients.
