What EMEC does

EMEC S.r.l. is an Italian manufacturer founded in 1982 and headquartered in Rieti, Italy, specializing in dosing pumps and water disinfection systems for industrial, municipal, and commercial water treatment applications. The company's product portfolio centers on three pump categories — motor-driven (PRIUS series), stepper motor (PRISMA series, featuring a 1:4800 turndown ratio), and electromagnetic — complemented by the CENTURIO multiparameter digital control system (Linux OS, ARM A5 processor, up to 10 measurement channels), probes, pulse water meters, and pre-assembled integrated systems for pools, cooling towers, disinfection, polymer dosing, and oxidation. The 2026 product range extends this footprint with the VELON compact peristaltic pump, CENTURIO POOL controller, and POOLBRAVO all-in-one pool/spa automation platform, all with Wi-Fi/GSM/Ethernet connectivity and management through the MyEmec iOS/Android application and NIMBUS service platform.

EMEC serves 16 vertical markets — primary among them swimming pools and spas, followed by oil & gas, food & beverage, healthcare, hospitality, municipal potabilization, cooling towers, agriculture/fertigation, livestock, aquariums, and chemical processing — via wholly-owned subsidiaries in 10 countries (Brazil, France, Germany, Algeria, China, UAE, Netherlands, Taiwan, USA, UK) and an authorized distributor network. Revenue is generated through hardware sales (dosing pumps, controllers, integrated systems) plus aftermarket spare parts and services, with quote-based pricing rather than public list prices. The company is privately held by its founders and management, with no parent company, external investors, or public listing identified, and operates under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, UL/CSA, ATEX (Cat. 2/3), and NSF/ANSI/CAN 50 certifications. Founded by Claudio Ciogli with co-founder Maurizio Mancini, the company employs 51-100 people and runs a sales-led GTM anchored on trade show participation (IFAT, Achema, WEFTEC, Piscine Global) and direct field sales to enterprise, municipal, and hospitality buyers.
