Multitel Pagliero

What Multitel Pagliero does

Multitel Pagliero S.p.A. is a privately held, family-controlled Italian manufacturer of aerial work platforms, headquartered in Manta (Cuneo), Italy, and operating for over 110 years (founded 1911/1913 per differing sources). The company designs and manufactures truck-mounted and tracked (spider) articulated and telescopic aerial platforms with working heights from 14.5m to 77.5m, spanning models up to and above 3.5 tonnes, plus specialized firefighting, hybrid/electric, and custom configurations. Its core technical differentiation rests on deep vertical integration—approximately 90% of platform components are designed and built in-house—and proprietary EVE (Elettronica Evoluta) electronics, including the MUSA and MUSA X control systems, alongside a telemetry platform offering GPS tracking, fleet monitoring, and remote diagnostics.

The company sells to construction and rental companies (its primary segment), aviation/airport operators, firefighting and emergency services, and infrastructure/civil engineering customers. Revenue is generated predominantly through hardware sales of platforms, supplemented by spare parts (20,000+ items in an automated warehouse with 24/48-hour delivery), after-sales technical service, operator/technician training, and a subscription-based telemetry service. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with B2B industrial capital equipment.

Go-to-market is a hybrid direct-plus-channel model: wholly owned subsidiaries in France, Germany, Spain, and the UK (with service offices in Turin, Milan, Lyon, Alsdorf, and Luton) provide direct sales and service, while an extensive authorized dealer network and 50+ contract workshops cover broader European and international markets including Portugal, Scandinavia, Switzerland, Poland, Canada, and South America. In May 2026 the company acquired majority control of Palazzani Industrie, a historic Italian maker of tracked/spider platforms, consolidating a 20-year relationship and broadening the group's product range.
