Aerzen Italia is growing New company headquarters north of Milan Aerzen Italia S.r.l. is expanding. Its 700 square metres building with offices and workshop, which was occupied in 2014, was no longer sufficient for the company’s business needs. So, at the beginning of 2019, the Italian subsidiary of the AERZEN Group moved into a modern building which is more than three times larger than the old building. Pleased about the new location: Alessio Recli, CEO of Aerzen ItaliaThe new company headquarters in the north of Milan is the right size to facilitate our professional and customer-oriented approach to our tasks in the future and to continue our steady growth,” says Alessio Recli, CEO of Aerzen Italia. The 23 employees have 800 square metres of office space, a 1,000 square metres service workshop and a 600 square metres new equipment and spare parts warehouse at their disposal. The new location, which also has over 2,000 square metres of outdoor space, including parking, offers enough space for additional workplaces in a bright, friendly and fresh atmosphere that contributes to the motivation and productivity of the team. Besides Alessio Recli, the management team of Aerzen Italia consists of Alessandro Sassi (Director Sales and After Sales), Luca Fasoli (Manager After Sales), Davide Viganò (Sales Manager) and Marco Anadotti (Technical Manager). The quintet relies on five sales engineers and five after-sales engineers, six technicians, including an Aerzen Turbo expert, as well as two administrative employees. In order to guarantee the best possible customer service and loyalty, Aerzen Italia has established a distribution network with twelve external representatives throughout the country. Strong in various applicationsModern, generous and focused on further growth: The new location of Aerzen Italia. ”The Italian market is highly competitive, especially in terms of price. Therefore, we rely on our know-how and the careful support of our customers throughout the entire life cycle of AERZEN products from the quotation phase to the service,” emphasises Recli. Aerzen Italia is particularly strong in the field of wastewater treatment. “In the blower market, which was formerly dominated by a competitor, we will achieve a share of almost 50 percent of all new blower systems sold, including exports, this year,” according to the CEO. The company will also be pushing Aerzen Turbo-Technology further into the market in order to take the lead position in this sector in the future. For comprehensive system solutions, the customer is also well advised with Aerzen Italia, says Recli: “For example, we also take care of piping, sensors and electrics.” The growth and the success of Aerzen Italia is reflected in the number of employees, which has increased more than fivefold in the past years. Aerzen Italia S.r.l. started in 2008 with just four employees. The company emerged from the former Savoia branch, which had represented the AERZEN brand in Italy since 1936. After two relocations, in 2010 and 2014, in the centre of Milan, the company has now moved to Bollate in the northern outskirts of the city. All customers can easily reach the new company headquarters by car. The opening of a motorway exit in the immediate vicinity is planned for next year – then Aerzen Italia can be reached even faster.
AERZEN Technology at the L‘Aquarium in Barcelona The spectacular Oceanario de L’Aquarium in Barcelona is considered the largest and most species-rich aquarium in Europe. With a diameter of 36 metres and a depth of 5 metres, it holds approximately 4 million litres of water. A few months ago, an AERZEN Delta Blower package was put into operation in the L’Aquarium. A large team of highly qualified professionals and cutting-edge technology enables to guarantee the health and wellbeing of over 11,000 animals at the L’Aquarium. Around 6 million litres of seawater is needed to fill the 21 aquariums. This water is supplied continuously by means of controlled extraction in wells arranged specifically for this purpose. A sophisticated water purification system enables operation in a semi-closed cycle. Purification and filtration are required for a number of reasons. When leftover food, along with the excrement of each organism (with a high ammonium content), is biologically degraded, secondary chemical compounds form (nitrites and nitrates), which are very harmful to the occupants of the aquarium and must be removed. Final sterilisation of the water is required as a biological prevention measure towards the exterior of L’Aquarium. The new AERZEN Delta Blower starts up in case of emergency, such as an electrical breakdown, and thus makes sure that the water runs out of filtration, and the fishes are provided with oxygen. The circulation of water is what generates oxygen. In addition, in an emergency, porous, pumice-like stones are put in the water to oxygenate the water. The AERZEN Delta Blower provides absolutely oil-free air according to ISO class. For the Aquarium application, it is a must: If the blower was operated with oil it would be fatal for the fishes.
