Made in Itap: where tradition meets modern production

From two plants in the province of Brescia, a company that guarantees quality, control and constant innovation.

In the heart of Brescia province, Itap is an example of how Italian manufacturing can evolve while maintaining the highest quality standards. From the first 1960s anvil blows to the latest generation of robotics, every stage of our industrial journey reflects a strong bond between technological innovation and artisanal care.

Two plants, one vision

Itap operates in two manufacturing facilities: one in Lumezzane and one in Rodengo Saiano, two closely linked hubs working in perfect synergy. The Lumezzane plant is the historical core of our mechanical operations, deeply rooted in the artisan tradition of Val Trompia. The Rodengo Saiano facility, on the other hand, is where technology meets industrial organization, with a highly automated and constantly evolving system.

The strong connection between the two sites allows flexibility, logistical efficiency and specialized internal processes that strengthen the excellence of our entire production cycle.

A continuous evolution driven by quality

Since its founding, Itap has strongly believed and in-house invested in production. The choice of not out has allowed us to optimize every stage of manufacturing, build advanced internal expertise and maintain strict control over every product we bring to market.
Across the Lumezzane and Rodengo facilities, more than 400 machines are in operation: from CNC lathes, automatic transfers machines and robotic cells. This synergistic system works daily with micrometric precision.
Our production lines are designed for maximum efficiency and traceability, with interconnected software systems aligned with Industry 5.0 principles. Every valve, fitting or component is the outcome of a structured process where quality is not optional, but a core standard.

Automation that supports people

In our plants, automation doesn’t mean replacement, it means support. Robots work alongside operators to improve safety, operation consistency and time management.
Operations such as threading, countersinking and dimensional checks are handled by an automated systems that ensure uniformity and minimize errors.

This evolution has constantly improved our working environment: more ergonomic spaces, streamlined procedures and increasingly safe and efficient human-machine interaction.

Technology and skills: a powerful combination

Itap’s production is powered by advanced technologies, but mostly, by the expertise of qualified professionals with technical skills and a keen eye for detail.

Machines don’t replace people, they support and amplify their work. Behind every components we produce, there are expert eyes, skilled hands and thoughtful decisions. It’s this balance between automation and people that allows us to deliver consistency, reliability and innovation.

A new turning center for greater precision

Among our most recent updates find place the addition of a new turning center, improving our machine fleet. This investment strengthens Itap’s ability to produce high-complexity components, shortens setup time and improves flexibility in small and medium production runs.
It’s another step forward in the direction that has always defined our company: improving every day to offer customers reliable, high-performing and 100% Made in Itap products.

Looking ahead with a strong history behind us

For us, innovation also means listening to the market, anticipating needs, and adapting our processes to real-world demands. That’s why we go on investing in new technologies and in the training of the people who work with us.

Since 1972, Itap has built its success on a transparent and strong supply chain. From raw materials to the finished product, every step involves certified processes, rigorous testing and a corporate culture grounded in responsibility.

Itap’s production is the meeting point between materials and ideas, technology and knowledge. In every valve, in every detail, we put our history, our vision and the strength of a quality that built lasting connections.
