SALMI

What SALMI does

SALMI S.r.l. is an Italian thermal systems management company founded in 1969 and headquartered in Sesto San Giovanni, in the Milan metropolitan area. The company specializes in the operation and maintenance of central heating plants, autoclave systems, refrigeration systems, hot-water sanitary systems, water-softening systems, and district heating connections, serving condominiums, private companies, and individual property owners primarily in the Lombardy region. Its core commercial offering is the "Gestione Calore" (heat management) energy service contract, under which SALMI assumes the role of "Terzo Responsabile" — taking full legal and operational responsibility for a building's thermal plant in exchange for a multi-year recurring service fee, with the customer purchasing heat-energy rather than fuel directly.

The service portfolio spans six core lines: plant operation and maintenance, meter reading and heat-cost billing (contabilizzazione), Gestione Calore energy service contracts, remote monitoring via the proprietary "Telecontrollo" system, 24/7 on-call emergency response, and design/renovation of thermal plants using equipment from manufacturers such as Wolf, Atag, Ygnis, Hoval, and Unical. The Telecontrollo platform is an automation solution that supervises geographically distributed boiler rooms, allowing technicians to verify and modify operating parameters in real time and receive automatic fault alerts. An internal Technical Office staffed with thermotechnical and electro-technical engineers registered with the Milan industrial technicians college supports service delivery.

Revenue is generated primarily through managed-service contracts on a quote-based, multi-year basis, with pricing not publicly disclosed. SALMI holds ISO 9001:2015 quality management certification, F-GAS certification under EU Regulation 2015/2067, D.M. 37/2008 professional habilitations across all installation categories (A-G), and registration in the Albo Nazionale Gestori Ambientali. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional ownership, no subsidiaries, no funding rounds, and no public revenue disclosure. The website displays placeholder values (0 PERSONE, 0 IMPIANTI, 0 CLIENTI SODDISFATTI) in lieu of disclosed operational metrics.
