In this article we take a look at Mattei, seen through the eyes of those who have worked here for a long time and of those who have just joined the company.
In 1919, after the Great War, when faced with the choice of accepting a job as a Civil Engineer in Sondrio, or embarking on an entrepreneurial adventure, the young engineer Enea Mattei had no doubts about choosing the second path. And from there began the centennial story of Mattei, the company that has made history in the compressed air industry with its exclusive rotary vane technology.
Angelo Capra and Eugenio Cereda are the historical memory of Mattei: from their stories of the evolution of the machines that have made the company’s history, to those of the “glorious past” we can see what has allowed Mattei to become the international group of today that exports compressors all over the world.
How important is the maintenance of a compressed air system? And what are the benefits of an efficient plant?
Compressed air is a widely used and important source of energy in a multitude of industries. Its use involves a huge amount of energy costs and it is for this reason that it is necessary to monitor and analyse your compressed air systems’ performance.
Many players in the industrial sector know energy efficiency represents a tremendous opportunity to generate both cost- and energy savings and that it is necessary to carry out a thorough efficiency analysis to fully understand the extent of the investment to be made.
How can compressed air affect electric energy consumption?
Switzerland is exemplary in many ways. Especially when it comes to the environment it is renowned for its forward-thinking and pro-activity, as shown by the incentives available for industry whom are committed to consuming less energy, reducing carbon-dioxide emissions and therefore, pollution. Mattei compressors also make a significant contribution to this cause.
A vast country, where there are still many growth possibilities for Mattei. Currently the distributors are in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States to the west. Yet there remains a great potential to be explored for rotary vane technology.
“Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success”. This phrase by Henry Ford is the essence of the Mattei professional training programme. It is a valuable tool to help face the challenges of an increasingly competitive marketplace, in an area which Mattei really believes in: training and development of staff, in fact it’s a key factor in the success of the company.
