The parent company Scaglia, a company producing technological components for the textile industry, was founded in Brembilla.
While not abandoning the production of items for the textile industry, the parent company Scaglia began the production of power transmission components in the first nucleus of the plant founded in Brembilla.
First SIT logistics office
Following the success of the production and sale of power transmission items, from the parent company Scaglia, SIT S.p.A. was founded, totally dedicated to the production and marketing of mechanical transmission components.
The internationalisation process began with the first subsidiary that today maintains production and distribution headquarters in the Paris region.
The Spanish subsidiary was established with headquarters and production in Barcelona and a decentralised warehouse in Madrid.
The German subsidiary was established with production and distribution centre located in Brakel in the centre of “unified Germany”.
The success of sales in Switzerland and the need for timely service led to the creation of the Swiss subsidiary.
Establishment Elatech
With the aim of completing the SIT product range, ELATECH was founded, today one of the world leaders in the development and production of polyurethane belts for transport, lifting, linear motion and power transmission applications.
The need to be close to customers on the American continent gave birth to the US subsidiary based in North Carolina.
The growing sales in China and the need to react quickly and adapt to the expectations of the large Chinese market, led the company to establish the subsidiary, 100% owned by SIT S.p.A., with production and logistics centre located in the province of Shanghai.
