What Emiliana Serbatoi does

Emiliana Serbatoi S.r.l. is an Italian family-owned manufacturer of fuel storage, transport, and dispensing systems, founded in 1983 in Campogalliano (Modena) and operating a second production facility in San Donà di Piave (Venezia). Its portfolio spans ADR-homologated polyethylene transport tanks (Emilcaddy®, Carrytank®), metallic total-containment tanks (Traspo®, Tankube, Emilcube®), above-ground and underground storage tanks (Tank Fuel, double-wall per UNI EN 12285-2), AdBlue/urea storage and dispensing systems (EmilBlue Station, Bluebox, Bluetank), and rotary vane pumps and dispensers (DEVIL, ECO, FIMAC, CVTV, Cube). A software and IoT layer — Emilcloud®, Emil Level, Emilprobe®, Emiltouch®, ES Tag (NFC) — adds cloud connectivity, remote level monitoring, and Industry 4.0-certified fleet/refueling management on top of the hardware base. The company also produces aviation fuel systems (Avio Tank), flexible tanks, filtration units (Emil Filter), and environmental compliance products (Eko Kit, ecological line).

The company sells to professional and industrial buyers across at least eight verticals — agriculture, transport/logistics, construction and mining, automotive/car-service, oil and gas, nautical, aviation, and industrial plants — through a sales-led go-to-market combining direct sales, an authorized dealer/distributor network, and since December 2025 wholly-owned regional entities ESUSA (United States) and ESIL (India). Distribution spans 80+ countries across five continents, with exports exceeding 50% of volumes and annual turnover above €20 million (FY2018 disclosure). Revenue mechanics rest on one-time hardware sales supplemented by after-sales technical services and an emerging cloud/IoT attach layer, with quote-based pricing and no public list. The firm is privately held by the Morselli family (founder Giancarlo and CEO Gian Lauro), with no external investors, no public listing, and membership in international industry bodies including the Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) and the American Rental Association (ARA).

• Piusi S.p.A. Italian manufacturer of fuel transfer pumps, dispensers, and fluid handling equipment, headquartered in Reggio Emilia. Highly comparable as a fellow Italian mid-market specialist serving fleet, agricultural, and automotive fuel management customers with overlapping SKUs (pumps, dispensers, meters).
• Roth Werke GmbH: German manufacturer of plastic tanks and storage systems for heating oil, water, and chemicals, including fuel station underground tanks. Comparable as a specialty tank maker with focus on plastic/metal double-wall products in European regulated markets.
• Sotralentz: French manufacturer of plastic tanks, IBCs, and containers for fuel, water, and chemicals (Hexacube and other lines). Comparable product overlap in plastic IBC-style transport tanks and ADR-compliant fuel containers, serving overlapping European industrial customers.

Broad incumbents

• Schütz GmbH & Co. KGaA: Global leader in industrial packaging including steel and plastic IBCs (EcoBulk, Mauser) used for chemical and fuel transport. Operates at much larger scale and broader scope than Emiliana Serbatoi, but directly competes in metal IBC-style transport containers (analogous to Traspo/Tankube).
