Idroconsulting

What Idroconsulting does

Idroconsulting S.p.A. is an Italian engineering, construction, and service company headquartered in Gessate (Milan), founded in 1977 to design and deliver process and wastewater treatment systems for industrial clients. Its portfolio covers five product families: Water Treatment Plants (raw water pre-treatment, desalination/demineralisation via reverse osmosis and ion exchange, condensate treatment, potabilization), Wastewater Treatment (sewage, deoiling and produced water treatment, chemical waste neutralisation), Sludge Dewatering (gravity thickeners, centrifuges, plate and frame filter presses), Chemical Injection Systems for cooling and boiler water conditioning, and Dryer and Purification Plants for hydrocarbon drying in refineries and petrochemicals. The technical stack relies on conventional unit operations — multi-media and sand filtration, ion exchange, reverse osmosis, electrodeionisation, ultrafiltration (including ceramic membranes for emulsified oil removal), adsorption on molecular sieves/alumina/silica gel, lamella clarifiers, and dissolved air flotation — assembled into project-specific configurations.

The company serves two customer segments: EPC contractors seeking sub-system engineering and equipment packages to embed within larger industrial project deliveries, and industrial end users (power generation, oil & gas, petrochemicals, fertilisers) procuring treatment plants for standalone facilities. It operates a project-based, direct-enterprise go-to-market, supplying design, procurement, manufacturing oversight, installation, commissioning, and after-sales services including training, maintenance planning, troubleshooting, and spare parts. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific; no list prices are published. Reference projects span more than a dozen countries including Kazakhstan, Venezuela, Pakistan, Singapore, Qatar, Egypt, Portugal, Northern Ireland, UAE, Romania, and Saudi Arabia, with named clients such as Tengizchevroil, Shell (Singapore, Qatar), ENI/Agip (Kashagan), ENGRO Fertilizer, SAFCO, Saudi Kayan, MIDOR, Ferrostaal, and Enelpower. Partnerships with major EPC firms (Saipem, Fluor, KBR, Worley, Tecnicas Reunidas, Maire Tecnimont, AMEC Foster Wheeler, Tecnip) and majors ENI and Enel function as the primary channel for project inclusion.

The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications, is privately held with no disclosed external investment or parent, and operates with 11–50 employees. Revenue, ownership structure, and financial performance are not publicly disclosed; no funding rounds, M&A, or leadership changes are reported in the available data.
