COMEC SRL

COMEC SRL WAS FORMED IN MAY 1981 AS PRODUCER OF ELECTROMECHANICAL EQUIPMENT FOR VARIOUS INDUSTRIES, PARTICULARLY FOR THE PRODUCTIONS OF BRICKS. IN 1984 THE COMPANY ALSO PRODUCED ITS FIRST MACHINES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SHOES, WHICH WERE EXHIBITED SUCCESSFULLY IN MILAN. THE COMPANY CONTINUED IN THESE DIFFERENT SECTORS FOR MORE THAN 35 YEARS PRODUCING A RANGE OF INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR BOTH , BEFORE BECOMING INVOLVED IN GYPSUM IN THE LATE 2010. WE INSTALLED OUR FIRST MACHINES FOR GYPSUM MOULDING TO THE SECTOR IN 2019. THE CONSTRUCTION OF THESE DREW DIRECTLY ON OUR EXPERIENCE FROM OUR OTHER SECTORS, PARTICULARLY BRICK PRODUCTION. OUR GYPSUM PANEL MACHINERY HAS SINCE EXPERIENCED A HIGH LEVEL OF SUCCES IN THE MARKET.

COMEC HAS ONLY ONE PRODUCTION SITE  LOCATED IN MALO, VENETO, IN NORTHERN ITALY. WE HAVE AGENTS IN SEVERAL COUNTRIES, SOME DIRECT AND OTHERS INDIRECT. USUALLY, HOW EVER, WE PREFER TO HAVE DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE CUSTOMER. ALL OUR AGENTS ARE ALSO TECHNICIAN, ABLE TO INSTALL THE MACHINES AND TO PROVIDE SERVICE FUNCTIONS FOR OUR CUSTOMERS.

WE INVOLVED IN GLOBAL GYPSUM SECTOR AS IN EARLY 2018 WE RECEIVED A REQUEST FOR EQUIPMENT TO PRODUCE GYPSUM PANELS. LOOKING INTO THIS AREA, WE NOTED THAT MANY OTHER PANEL MOULDING SYSTEMS WERE DISCONTINUOUS WITH A RELATIVELLY LOW  LEVEL OF AUTOMATION.WE PROPOSED AN AUTOMATICAL SOLUTION TO THE CUSTOMER, ONE THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN TESTED BY US IN THE BRICK INDUSTRY.WE PUT TOGETHER A PROTOTYPE AND TESTED IT. THE CUSTOMER WAS SATISFIED WITH OUR INNOVATIVE SOLUTION.

FROM COMEC’S SIDE, WE WANTED TO ENTER THIS MARKET DUE TO INHERENT SUBSTAINABILITY OF GYPSUM AS A BUILDING MATERIAL. IT IS AN INCREASINGLY POPULAR MATERIAL THANKS TO ITS EASE OF CONSTRUCTION, LOW EMBODIED ENERGY, INSULATING AND SOUND-ABSORBING ABILITIES AND ITS FIRE PROOF CHARACTERISTICS. IT WAS THE RIGHT FIT FOR COMEC!

COMEC PRODUCES COMPLETE LINES FOR THE CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF GYPSUM PANELS, FROM THE STORAGE AND DOSING OF RAW MATERIALS TO PALLETISING AND PACKING THE FINISHED PRODUCTS.

WHEN A COMPANY APPROACHES COMEC IT IS LOOKING TO PRODUCE HIGH-QUALITY PANELS, WHICH CAN ONLY BE DONE WITH HIGH QUALITY EQUIPMENT. THIS EXTENDS FROM ENSURING THE CORRECT FORMULATION, WITH THE CORRECT WATER/GYPSUM DOSE, FIBREGLASS, COMPONENTS ANBD OTHER ADDITIVES, TO THE SHAPE OF THE MOULDS AND THE FINAL PACKAGING. THEY ALSO WANT FLEXIBLE  MACHINERY THAT CAN ACCOMODATE DIFFERENT PRODUCTS.

THE GYPSUM SECTOR IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR COMEC . AS IT HAS CONTRIBUTED IN VARIOUS WAYS TO OUR MACHINES PRODUCED FOR OTHER SECTORS THAT THE COMPANY SERVES. AS TO THE FINANCIAL IMPACT, THE GYPSUM SECTOR IS HUGE TO COMEC. AN ORDER FOR A COMPLETE GYPSUM PANEL LINE COULD DOUBLE OUR TURNOVER.

THE MAIN COUNTRIES WHERE WE SELL ARE NORTHER AFRICA AND MIDDLE EAST. HOWEVER WE ALSO HAVE FREQUENT REQUESTS FROM ELSEWHERE PARTICULARLY LATIN AMERICA AND RUSSIA, AS WELL AS SELECTED COUNTRIES WITHIN EUROPE.
