We are the result of the evolution of the experiences and the synergies developed by three companies active for more than 50 years in the field of carbon steel pipes and i.e. General Sider Italiana S.p.A. (specialized in the production of steel pipes), Riveco Rivestimenti Condotte S.p.A. (specialized in the anticorrosion coatings of steel pipes) and General Tex S.r.l. (producers of special fabrics for the coating reinforcement). Our industrial group has become a benchmark in the field of pipes supplies relevant to the energy and infrastructure industries, with a specific commitment to quality.
Production is carried out in two different sites between the regions of Abruzzo and Molise; one in Chieti Scalo and the other at Larino (CB) in a wholesome covered area of 114.000 sq. mt. (among offices and plant) and with a open air stockyard of 520.000 sq.mt.
We market our products inland and abroad, to the main European Companies transporting and distributing gas, in Mediterranean and Middle-East countries and in many other areas, also thanks to our capacity of re-locate the production equipment with mobile units. With the aim of increasing our presence in South America, We have established Riveco do Brasil in Lorena (São Paulo).
