CEBA

What CEBA does

CEBA S.p.A. is a privately held Italian industrial equipment manufacturer specializing in combustion solutions for heavy industry. Founded in 1988 in Trescore Balneario, Italy, the company designs and builds custom heating equipment — including ladle and tundish preheating stations, manipulators for sampling and temperature measurement, process burners, bath heaters, RTO/RO thermal oxidizers, heat treatment furnaces, glass tempering and bending lines, and aluminium melting/homogenizing furnaces — sold under its own brand and historically organized by industry vertical (iron & steel, oil & gas, heat treatment, glass, aluminium, environment). Its technology base rests on industrial combustion engineering, anchored by the patented ICS (Intelligent Combustion System) for energy savings and, more recently, a proprietary H2 Burner for hydrogen-compatible applications. The company is controlled by C2M GROUP s.r.l. and currently operates with 11–50 employees.

CEBA generates revenue primarily through one-time project sales of custom-engineered equipment to enterprise industrial buyers, supplemented by professional services in R&D, testing, and customer care. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated per project. Its go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with top-of-funnel demand generated through participation in industry exhibitions such as ANKIROS 2024 (Turkey) and AISTech2026 (USA), targeting engineering and procurement teams at steel mills, refineries, glass manufacturers, aluminium producers, and heat treatment facilities. The company holds ISO 9001, UNI EN 1090, and ISO 3834-3 certifications, which are prerequisites for vendor qualification in regulated industrial procurement. No AI/ML capabilities, external funding rounds, or disclosed financial metrics are present in the available data.
