ESB ACQUIRES THE HISTORIC ROSACOMETTA: A NEW CHAPTER FOR BLOCK AND CONCRETE PRODUCT PLANTS

Emanuele Stabellini – Marketing Manager, Edilteco S.p.A.

The history of Rosacometta: more than a century of innovation and quality

Rosacometta began operating in 1904, manufacturing small manual machines for block production. Over the years the company developed dynamic vibration machines, creating a complete product range that fuelled its continuous expansion and success. After the Second World War, Rosacometta introduced the first vibro-compression models to the international market, setting new standards in the sector.

The company, officially registered as Rosacometta after the death of its founders, quickly earned an excellent reputation thanks to the quality of its products and the use of the best available technologies. The design and construction of fully automatic plants brought further improvements in concrete batching, mixing and aggregate dosing, eventually making it possible to produce more than 30,000 blocks in an 8-hour shift.

The acquisition of Rosacometta: an investment in the future

The acquisition of Rosacometta is a strategic investment for ESB Srl, enabling it to enter the market for plants that manufacture concrete products. Marco Luzzana, Technical Director of ESB Srl, states: “Having acquired the company that is synonymous with plants for concrete products in Italy allows us to truly enter the plant market. We have taken over all the technical documentation and we have access to all the customers who operate one of its lines anywhere in the world.”

ESB Srl aims to relaunch the Rosacometta brand, regain the trust of its customers and provide them with full spare parts support, as well as winning new orders for new plants or plants to be overhauled.

ESB Srl: a company in constant expansion

Established on 30 January 2014, ESB Srl is the result of a collaboration between three companies: Edilteco, one of the leading international manufacturers of lightweight thermal insulating mortars; Manu-Cem, a long-established company from Bergamo specialising in concrete products; and MCL Costruzioni Italia, a contractor specialising in the design and construction of masonry. The company has already gained important references in Italy and abroad, including a production plant in Israel, distributors in Norway and Sweden and a collaboration in southern Italy with a well-known local manufacturer.

ESB Srl’s flagship products, such as the Smartblock lightweight blocks for infill masonry and the Easyblock range, are the result of extensive joint research and are a source of pride to be exported worldwide. The company’s know-how, built on the experience of three solid industrial companies, is aimed at rapid international growth.

A sustainable and innovative future

Following the example of Edilteco, Manu-Cem and MCL Costruzioni Italia, ESB Srl aims to promote comfortable, sustainable and energy-efficient construction. With advanced technological solutions that are original yet easy to use, the company sets out to respond effectively to customers’ needs for the thermal and acoustic insulation of buildings.

With this acquisition, ESB Srl not only strengthens its position in the market for block and concrete product manufacturing plants, but also renews its commitment to offering high-quality, technologically innovative products, consolidating its international reputation.
