Founded in 1960 by Pietro Battezzati, the company started with fusions of grey cast-iron in a handicraft factory, producing materials for aqueducts, especially manhole covers, trap-doors and special pieces.

In 1969 the Battezzati foundry moved to the industrial zone of Modugno (near Bari) in a plant of over 1000 square meters, with an open area designated for the storage and the loading and unloading of goods.

Over time, the Battezzati foundry, which is becoming a leader in this economic sector, has strengthened its contacts with other important companies.

In the '90s, thanks to the commitment of Michele Battezzati, comes to life the commercial branch of the Battezzati foundry. With the contribution of collaborators and agents, the company created a huge distribution network which supplies the following products for aqueducts and sewerages:

• trap-doors and manhole covers in spheroidal cast-iron GS 500/7 – UNI 4544 – ISO 1083 – UNI EN 124
• trap-doors and manhole covers in grey cast-iron
• drain wells in Cls
• special pieces in spheroidal and grey cast-iron
• pipes in spheroidal cast-iron
• hydraulic equipments
• pipes in PVC for civil and public building (sewer pipes, aqueducts, irrigation...)
• pipes in PVC and POLYETHYLENE for electrical pipelines (rigid and wrinkled pipes)
• pipes in POLYETHYLENE for drainage
