Pompetravaini S.p.A. was founded in 1929 by the late Carlo Travaini, an experienced machinist with solid production experience acquired while working at the company Franco Tosi of Legnano, Italy.

He started his own business under the name of Travaini Mechanical Machining, producing many different types of pumps under private labels with designs and materials supplied by customers. Located in the historic center of Castano Primo (MI), the machine shop proudly boasted advanced technological and organizational aptitude even in its early days.

In the following years, the ever growing experience and continued technological updating of the manufacturing plant increased the growth potential forcing a major expansion of the business. In the 1940’s the plant moved and doubled in size with adjoining offices.

The current President Ing. Mario Travaini decided in 1968 to rename the company Pompetravaini S.p.A. With technologically advanced production and a sales network adequate for the times, the company began selling products in the European market under its own label.

Once more the company outgrew its facilities and in 1982 a new site of approximately 8000 Sq. Meters was built in the industrial area of Castano Primo, MI. The old location was remodeled and utilized for specific projects including the production of specialized pumping systems.

In 2002 there was another addition to the existing plant. A building of approximately 4000 Sq. Meters was added to house a new computerized stock room and assembly room. This futuristic project utilizes LGV (laser guided vehicles) to store components, bring them to the assembly area and then bring the assembled pumps to the test room, all without the touch of human hands. Men no longer travel to the components but vice versa. This new technologically advanced process has the objective to reduce manufacturing times, shortening delivery times, while reducing error margins to virtually zero.

Parallel to the internal growth there has been a marketing expansion into international markets. This phase, that was initiated by Ing. Mario Travaini in the early years of 1980, today places Pompetravaini S.p.A. as one of the leading exporters of Italian technology throughout the world with direct branches in Benelux, Canada, France, Germany,Poland, United Kingdom and United States.
