Champions of inovation
"I've always had the best results in my life when I developed something new”.
This is how Achille Costamagna, founder of Pellan Italia, summarizes over half a century of an entrepreneurial adventure, his own, which had experienced both unprecedented success and the recession and a sharp contraction in the traditional leather goods sector, always betting on innovation.

Pellan Italia, our companies:
1. FISCATECH

Fiscatech is the result of the fusion of the experiences and technologies of Sogetec and Fiscagomma.
For Fiscatech, innovation means creativity, competence and product quality, as well as customer service with the proposal of products free of toxic substances.
The use of clean energy generated by photovoltaic systems that reduce CO2 emissions into the atmosphere are proof of this. Finally, the ISO: 9001: 2008 - ISO 14001: 2004 and OHSAS18001: 2007 certifications guarantee high standards of quality and safety for the environment and health.
2. CERERE 81

"We sowed the sea, this checkered sea which are our rice fields”. Cerere 81, the Group's farm, 500 hectares near Confienza, in the heart of Lomellina, among the top 20 in Italy, is dedicated to rice farming and is a supplier of major national players.
Based at the Kyrie farmhouse, which houses the church of Sant’Ignazio (17th century), on the Via Francigena along the road to Vespolate, Cerere 81 is a champion of ecological and environmental sustainability. All stages of production from the first water in the paddy field to the grain processed in the company are followed and controlled to respect nature, the environment and the people who work there: reducing waste, decreasing the use of pesticides, using only resources from 100% renewable energies.
The Cerere paddy field is a sustainable environment in itself, where many animal species continue to inhabit it and a large part of the land - not used - is destined for biodiversity. Sustainable also because we protect the people who work in the fields and by guaranteeing fair compensation to farmers we give consumers the best guarantee.
The attention to synergies and interactions in Pellan Italia also suggests the study of an industrial process for the recycling of rice waste, mainly straw, in bio-building applications. Cerere 81 then works on the creation of an entire sustainable production chain related to the new demand represented by experiential tourism which finds in Cascina Kyrie and its multimedia agricultural museum (MAM) a testimony of the best Made in Italy. Landscape, food and bio-agriculture. But also an important memory of the peasant culture to be handed down to the Italian school in the sign of Expo Milano 2015.
In 1949 the director Giuseppe De Santis used Cascina Kyriè as a set for some scenes of the film Riso Amaro, with Silvana Mangano and Vittorio Gassman, considered one of the masterpieces of Italian cinema neorealism.

Since the initial repair and maintenance of machinery for the textile industry (1890), Galdabini immediately oriented itself towards the construction of machine tools. The company strongly believes that innovation in the design and development of cutting-edge solutions make the difference in the market.
The high customer loyalty index and the reputation gained over the years is for Pellan Italia the best testimony to Galdabini quality. By this spirit has been created the Technology Center, a dedicated area of over 600 square meters where the developed technology is available to the customers, who can view cutting-edge machines, test their products and study - together with our expert - adapted solutions to individual needs. Galdabini products are CE certified and the company is ISO 9001 certified.
