APE Raccorderie S.R.L.

Founded as “Minuterie Metalliche di Pe Angelo”, an artisan business manufacturing components for the wine-making sector, the company’s production has grown so much over the years that it has had to expand its area from 500 m² in the historic site to more than 52,000 m² in the current one. APE is now one of the few companies currently based on the concept of a system company, producing the entire pipe-fitting system in the same Brescia plant. In this way it consolidates the strong relationship between the company and local area, while continuously shaping its identity and investing a large part of its capital in research and development of new technologies to improve its production system.
