Mapei is a large, privately held chemical manufacturer headquartered in Milan with 13,200+ employees across 98 subsidiaries in 59 countries. The company is mid-way through a major digital modernization: rolling out Dynamics 365 across supply chain and operations while automating product-data flows for ecommerce and EDI. Pain-point clustering around inventory optimization, lead-time compression, and supplier consolidation suggests Mapei is tightening operational efficiency as it expands U.S. footprint and manages capital-intensive production-line buildouts.
Mapei manufactures adhesives, sealants, grouts, waterproofing systems, concrete admixtures, and industrial flooring products for the global building and construction industry. The company serves residential new-build, commercial projects, and heritage-building renovation. With 2024 consolidated revenue around €4.4 billion, Mapei operates manufacturing facilities across multiple continents and maintains a sales-led hiring mix reflecting geographic expansion, particularly in the United States. Current operational focus includes new production-line deployment, alternative raw-material qualification, and modernization of legacy supply-chain and catalog systems.
Mapei uses Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, Teams), Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management (actively rolling out), Power BI for analytics, CAD/AutoCAD for design, EDI for supplier integration, and Sitefinity for web content. Currently adopting Dynamics 365 across operations.
Mapei operates 98 subsidiaries across 59 countries. The company maintains manufacturing and sales presence in North America, Europe, South America, Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific regions. Active hiring is underway in 10 countries to support geographic expansion.
