Contract manufacturing in Italy.
For buyers who already know what they want made. With a specification, a volume and a market, the question is which Italian manufacturer is a realistic route, and whether they want the work.

What makes a brief quotable
Manufacturers cannot price an idea. The gap between a quotation and a holding reply is usually four or five facts, and they are the same ones every time: specification, material, volume, market and timing.
What Nucleo does not do
We are not a design office or a laboratory. We do not engineer the product or hold technical responsibility for it. We identify the routes, open the commercial conversation and keep it moving.
What the brief needs
What makes this quotable.
Blanks are fine. An open question is usually the starting point. These are simply what a manufacturer needs before it can price anything.
- 01Drawing, specification or recipe
- 02Materials and components, and who supplies them
- 03Volume for a first order and repeat
- 04Packaging requirements
- 05Destination market
- 06Certification, testing or documentation requirements
Common questions
What if my specification is incomplete?
Common, and not a problem in itself. The first reply will be a question rather than a shortlist. What does not work is a brief so open that any manufacturer would fit, because it produces introductions nobody can act on.
Is contract manufacturing more expensive than private label?
Usually the minimums are higher and the timeline longer, because something is being made rather than relabelled. Whether the unit cost is higher depends on the product and the volume.

One brief is enough to start. We read it before we reply.
