Our History
Drawing on the industrial experience of Eng. Giovanni Cottino and within his industrial group, TRASMA S.r.l. was established in Trofarello (Turin), with his niece Cristina Di Bari leading the company.
The company becomes a joint-stock company (S.p.A.), with a capital increase of ITL 3 billion, while the Trofarello production area expands from 5,000 to 10,000 sqm.
Trasma obtains ISO 9001 Quality Management System certification, enabling the company to acquire new customers.
Share capital increases to ITL 22 billion, and the new Trasma production site and headquarters are established in Moncalieri on a 30,000 sqm site, including 14,000 sqm dedicated to production and warehouses and 1,000 sqm to offices.
The copper wire drawing department for bare and tinned copper, supplying electrical conductor production, is established alongside the existing activities.
Trasma obtains ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certification.
Production of insulated conductors is discontinued, while production of drawn wires continues.
New plants and increased production enable Trasma to expand its domestic market and begin an internationalisation process, leading to participation in the most important industry trade fairs.
The product range expands with the establishment of new Bunching and Rope departments.
Digitalisation of production processes
Trasma doubles its turnover, strengthening its position among Europe’s leading manufacturers.
