Italian know-how and great tradition – Saarland’s latest gain
As a family business, Bedeschi S.p.A. was founded in 1908 near Venice and today it is one of the oldest European companies specializing in the design and construction of machinery and equipment for bulk materials and heavy duty industries. As the only supplier with its own production facilities in Europe, Bedeschi was initially working in the brick industry, but has been able to successfully expand and is now one of the leading suppliers of integrated solutions for bulk handling in many different industries. The two workshops in northern Italy, which together cover more than 40,000 square meters, are a flagship for their quality and tradition.
To strengthen its global representation, this long-established company decided to open the new Bedeschi Materials Handling Excellence Center in Saarland, Germany. It has been further expanding its knowledge in the areas of engineering, sales, and after-sales as well as strengthening its positioning in the global material handling industry here since March 1, 2023.
