What Julmatic Automatismos does

Julmatic Automatismos S.L. is a Valencia-based, family-scale B2B electrical material distributor founded in 1990 that has built a specialized position in industrial automation, renewable energy, and electrical installation supplies. The company operates an e-commerce platform (compraonline.julmatic.es) carrying 500+ brands, including Schneider Electric (for which it holds Alliance Registered Industrial Automation Distributor and Telemecanique Sensor Partner certifications), Siemens, Rittal, Phoenix Contact, Balluff, Cembre, and Pemsa. Its product portfolio spans PLCs, variable frequency drives, sensors, electrical panels (manufactured as turnkey projects), photovoltaic systems, heat pumps, EV charging, lighting, HVAC, and cabling. The company operates a single logistics center in Paterna (opened June 2021) and runs an in-house fleet of four delivery vehicles, offering 24-hour delivery for in-stock items and 48-72 hour delivery through partner warehouses.

The company generates revenue primarily through B2B hardware sales and related value-added services: pre-sale technical consultation, on-site equipment commissioning, programming support, and periodic customer training courses. Go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct field sales with technical inside sales and an online purchasing portal for registered trade customers. Julmatic serves six principal segments — machinery manufacturing, automotive, electrical installers, photovoltaic energy, lighting, and HVAC — with installer, machinery manufacturing, and photovoltaic energy described as primary segments. Pricing is quote-based with periodic promotional campaigns on specific product lines (e.g., 4% on TeSys, 10% on ClimaSys). Customer base exceeds 250 accounts, and headcount is approximately 50 employees.

Julmatic is a member of three purchasing and distribution groups — Grupo DAM (€580M revenue, 98 sales points), AUNA Distribución (€1,300M sales, 450 sales points, 93 partners), and IMELCO (€24B revenue, 22 countries, 1,130 members) — which provide shared logistics, group purchasing leverage, and cross-referral visibility. The company is privately held, has no subsidiaries, has not raised external capital, and operates exclusively within Spain with no disclosed international revenue.
