About us

Welcome to THE WORLD OF ESSEL built on quality, reliability and care for the customers!

This is our way.

It starts with the purchase of sheet iron, followed by a lively process that gives the future products their shape. We split, burn, form, weld, shape, assemble and apply the final finish coating. All of this inspires us and embodies our slogan: “Shaping the Future”
