What Sicura does

Sicura S.p.A. is an Italian B2B service provider founded in 1994 and headquartered in Vicenza, specializing in occupational safety, environmental, and quality management. The company operates through four specialized subsidiaries—Sicura (fire prevention and security systems), Evimed (occupational and preventive medicine), Protec (machine protection), and Emmetek (building-safety services)—delivering integrated compliance services across five business units: fire prevention and security, machine adaptation, machine protection, consulting and training, and occupational medicine. It serves Italian enterprises of every sector and size, with named clients including Ferroli, Bauli, Unilever, Tenaris Dalmine, and NH Hotels, plus 800+ Evimed clients and over 60,000 medical examinations performed annually. The group employs 280+ staff across eight operational offices and one warehouse in Italy.

Sicura's technology layer consists of five proprietary software platforms—Gemma (fire-system maintenance management), Evidence (health-data analysis), CartsanEvimed (occupational medicine documentation), Portale Infortuni (accident and near-miss tracking), and PortalOne (training documentation portal)—that digitize compliance workflows mandated by Italian Legislative Decree 81/2008 and related fire-prevention regulations. These platforms are accessible via authenticated web portals with mobile technician interfaces and digital signature capture. Revenue is generated through a mix of professional services (project-based consulting, installation, and recurring maintenance contracts), subscription access to proprietary software, training course fees, per-examination medical fees, and hardware sales through Protec. Pricing is quote-based and customized to client scope. The go-to-market combines a consultative enterprise field-sales motion (220+ consultants) targeting medium and large Italian businesses with a standardized SMB offering through the Smart Fulgard brand.

Sicura is currently owned by Argos Wityu, a pan-European private equity firm, following its 2020 acquisition from Rekeep (formerly Manutencoop Facility Management), which had held the company since 2008. The group holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications, plus CQOP SOA qualification for public works, and is governed under a D.Lgs. 231/2001 organizational model. Strategic activity under Argos Wityu ownership has included the 2023 acquisition of Gunnebo Italia's Integrated Security business unit, the 2019 acquisition of Emmetek, and a corporate reorganization announced in July 2023.
