COMPANY PROFILE

2

INTRODUCTION The company is one of the oldest

valve manufacturer in Italy. Since

1950 design and manufacture

were concentrated on lubricated

plug valves in standard and

inverted pressure-balanced

designs. For 40 years the company

operated successfully improving its

skills and capabilities, up to the

beginning of the „90s when the

company was liquidated due to

market changes and the growing

attention of the owners to forgings and ball valves production.

In 1998 the activity found a new beginning with the name “La Valvomeccanica

S.p.A.”, incorporated in Solbiate Olona (VA) as a public limited company specialized

in small and medium ball valves. In the same year, “RMT Valves s.r.l.” was

established in Voghera (PV), as a trading company supplying service to major

worldwide Engineering & Construction companies for all types of on-off valves: ball,

gate, globe, check, butterfly and plug. In 2008 the good collaboration between the

two companies led to the merger of the two companies into “RMT Valvomeccanica

s.r.l.”.

RMT VALVOMECCANICA is

included in the GIVA

group, an Italian group

founded by Mr. Antonio

Vienna in 1962 in Northern

Italy, which performed in

2008 a turnover exceeding

650 Million Euro. Actually

the group includes steel

mills, such as Italfond, and

important forge masters,

such as Forgiatura

A.Vienna, which can supply

big forgings up to 120 tons and shell rings up to 8 meters in diameter, in a wide

range of materials.

Supported by the international experience and the innovation of the group, in the

last years the company improved products quality and customers satisfaction.

Moreover RMT Valvomeccanica has risen to the top of the market thanks to its

competitiveness and the capacity to adapt to the continuous evolutions occurring

within the market itself.

The factory and headquarter

of the company are located

in the town of Solbiate

Olona, just North of Milan in

the very heart of the Italian

and European valve

industry, at a short driving

distance from most of the

main sub suppliers of raw

materials and components.

Solbiate Olona is easy to get

to from from the two main

airports of Malpensa and Linate. Moreover RMT Valvomeccanica is active worldwide

through an organized net of sales offices, agents and distributors, in order to offer

swift assistance and on-site technical support for all customers.

PRODUCT RANGE

RMT VALVOMECCANICA s.r.l. is present in the small and big sized ball valve market,
