Our goal is to continuously improve our productivity, increasing product quality and optimising the environmental performance of our processes. To this end, innovation is a strategic tool for us.

Process control and management of feedback information are among our priorities. Technological/plant development and the application of Industry 4.0 criteria for process control are aimed at achieving a higher-quality product with thermo-mechanical treatment and better dimensional tolerance.

In our relationship with our customers, we go far beyond a purely commercial relationship. Driven by market needs, we are motivated to exceed our limits and invest in the continuous development of our product range.

By entering into technological partnerships with our customers, we continuously expand our technical knowledge and create added value by providing innovative and customised solutions to the market.

Research and Development activities are a considerable stimulus for skills growth. In particular, young people working in the Business Unit have the opportunity to deepen their knowledge through interactions with research partners and production departments.

Thanks to the commitment of Feralpi Group, the Business Unit Specialties also collaborates at a European level with a research network that allows us to monitor the state of the art of technology and identify partners who can support participation in research and development projects, as well as training events and cultural growth.

Approval of research projects and support through funding are crucial support for innovation and development activities. Projects are an excellent vehicle for training and increasing company know-how, thanks to the diverse skills obtainable through intensive collaboration with research partners.

Among others, the close collaboration with the metallurgy department of the Lecco facility of Politecnico di Milano, provides us with a fresh, up-to-date and stimulating academic insight that continuously drives us to improve the quality of our products and to question our methods and processes, thus remaining open to change and innovation. The involvement of researchers and university dissertation students, who then embark on a professional career at Caleotto, also guarantees us a constant expansion of skills that bring new insights and fuel our dynamic approach.
