EXSTO Italia
In 2020, EXSTO Italia was established from the merger of 3 historical brands of the Italian landscape of rubber molding and polyurethane casting: Cervellati Srl, Tecnotec Srl, and Emil-gomma Srl. This union not only brings capitals and technical expertise together, but it also represents the collaboration of people with kindred business culture. One of the competitive advantages of the merger is sharing knowledge of different manufacturing techniques and processes.
