COMPANY
Our story
Our firm was launched in 1954 in Erba, in the province of Como (Italy) thanks to the determination of the founders couple Fulvio Porro and Adele Brenna.
Initially active in construction materials trading, following the market demand the company moves towards ferrous and non ferrous scrap metals trading.
In 2015 the new facility has become available to meet raising capacity needed and a renewal in the fleet.
Once at third generation of administration, the company is still family-owned.
