    First quality certification, issued by the Italian Naval Register and renewed ever since without interruption.

  3. 2000s

    ISO 9001

    The system moves to ISO 9001 as the company enters the nuclear, naval, energy and wind sectors.

  4. 2018

    AEROSPACE

    Entry into aerospace with the first precision-machined components for the aviation industry.

  5. 2022

    EN 9100:2018

    System certified to the aerospace standard. Two thousand parts a year, every dimension tracked through to delivery.

  6. 2026

    ISO 45001:2018

    Certification of the occupational health and safety management system.

  7. 2027

    ISO 14001:2018

    System certified to the environmental standard.

CERTIFICATION TIMELINE
1963 1995 2022 2026 2027 ACTIVITY 60+ YRS ISO 9003 → 9001 EN 9100:2018 ISO 45001:2018 ISO 14001:2018

Over thirty years of certified quality management without interruption: from ISO 9003 in 1995 to ISO 9001 and aerospace EN 9100, through to ISO 45001 for safety. From 2027, environmental ISO 14001 is also planned.
