CTP Team

What CTP Team does

CTP Team S.r.l. is an Italian private industrial engineering and manufacturing company, founded in 1970 and headquartered in Lallio (Bergamo) within the Kilometro Rosso innovation district near Milan. The company designs, engineers, manufactures, and delivers turnkey EPC systems for two core problems in heavy industry: air pollution control (APC) and waste heat recovery (WHR). Its technology portfolio includes proprietary fabric filter systems, the SWAP (Sonic Wave Acceleration Pulse) low-pressure sonic-wave bag-cleaning technology capable of cleaning filter bags up to 12 meters long, ESP-to-fabric-filter conversions, gas cooling systems, and WHR power plants based on both Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC, for ≥150°C waste heat) and Steam Rankine Cycle (SRC, for ≥260°C waste heat) configurations. In-house engineering is supported by dual-phase Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation, and the installed base is increasingly linked to the company's CTP Remote Survey platform and Smart Control Panels with self-learning software for continuous optimization. The HPF sub-division in Turin produces proprietary filter bags as consumables for the installed base.

CTP's commercial model is built around large, project-based B2B contracts with industrial enterprises, delivered through direct enterprise field sales supplemented by industry events, technical content marketing, and a video series aimed at the cement and heavy-industry audience. Revenue streams are split across equipment manufacturing and sales (hardware), full EPC turnkey projects (engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and startup), and recurring engineering, advisory, optimization, and after-sales services delivered via the OTP division. Steelworks, boilers, ducting, and piping are produced by CTN Group, CTP's manufacturing partner, providing vertical integration over the largest hardware scope of each project. Customer WHR systems are reported to deliver 3–20 MWe per installation, achieve typical ROI of 4–6 years, and avoid CO2 at scale (e.g., ~15,000 tons/year for a single 7 MW ORC project; 165,000 tons/year aggregated across 12 operational systems).

The cement industry is the explicitly identified primary customer segment, supported by named enterprise customers including Cimpor (Portugal), Sonmez Cement, Cimko/Sanko Holding, Medcem, and Cimsa (Turkey), Tasek Corporation / Ipoh Cement (Malaysia), Asia Cement (Thailand), Askari Cement (Pakistan), and San Miguel (Philippines), with secondary expansion into biomass, glass, iron & steel, power, and waste-to-energy. The company operates across at least 14 countries in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North America, and reports more than 200 SWAP systems installed globally alongside 12 operational WHR systems totaling 68.67 MWe of installed capacity.
