Steam & Water... Tailor Made!


You might have tried it before, a cheap dress bought in a department store. The tissue looks good, the cut is appealing, the price tag even more. Then, back at home, you wear it and you discover that the shoulders are right but the waist line is a bit tight. After a couple of washings the trousers are a few centimetres shorter. And the zip soon fails, in the middle of a party, of course. They told you that the tailor downtown is better, and you said that it's too expensive. Fine.


Your money, your choice, of course.


We learned, in the past few years - caring about fast-growth markets - how to cut our plants around your measures and according to your taste and needs. You have had less time than before to take care of a number of details, and to acquire a number of new skills trying to put together a complex plant. You told us what you needed - in terms of heat, steam or electrical output - and how many square meters were available, and we supplied the whole package. You were satisfied, started saving money and called us again when you needed another solution. You allowed us to multiply by five in ten years the turnover of our thermal plants division.


news


If your problem was related with water treatment, squeezed between the availability of incoming liquids more and more polluted and the need to release them more and more cleaned, you appreciated our problem-solving approach and our innovative technologies. You allowed us to multiply by ten in ten years the turnover of our water treatment division.


We are the tailor. We know how to tailor-made the plant that you need. Read in this number of Cannon News a number of successful references about our most recent developments: most of them have been designed around the specifications of our customers - you.


And we are even not that expensive. We learned - in more than 50 years of continuing activity - how to design, build and install non-standard equipment maintaining the manufacturing skills and the cost structure of our industrial division, that keeps supplying several lines of standard machines.


Thank you for your continuing support. Your Steam & Water Tailors
