What Crescocito does
Crescocito AB is a Swedish engineering and manufacturing company headquartered in Lidköping that develops, produces, and sells proprietary industrial painting equipment, fluid handling systems, and custom-engineered surface treatment solutions. Founded in 2006 and acquired in February 2024 by Addtech AB (a Swedish listed technical solutions group), the company operates from purpose-built premises that house CNC machining, an integrated spray booth with the latest-generation ABB paint robot laboratory, and design, production, and testing facilities. Its product portfolio spans automatic spray guns (CLA, CDA, CHA, and CAA series for low-pressure, airless, and air-assist applications), paint pressure regulators, colour changer modules, paint filters, automatic cap cleaners, paint supply systems, ceramic dosing units, sealing and waxing applicators, and a wide range of robot-specific adapters for ABB-HWL/HWS and Fanuc P145 hollow-wrist installations, complemented by fully custom-built painting systems including pipe work and distribution. Crescocito serves enterprise customers in automotive, ceramics, plastics, wood, and general manufacturing industries, with a published case study at Ideal Standard's Armitage Shanks plant (UK) and technology partnerships with Graco, ARO, WALTHER PILOT, and Endress+Hauser.
The company runs a direct enterprise field-sales model with quote-based, multi-year contract pricing tailored to customer specifications, supported by dedicated regional sales contacts in Sweden, France, Netherlands/Benelux, and Poland, and channel partners LIMAR TECHNIEK BV (Benelux) and ECCO FINISHING POLSKA (Poland). Revenue is generated through hardware sales of proprietary equipment and custom system solutions, supplemented by technical support, installation assistance, and spare parts. Crescocito is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified, GDPR-compliant, and received the Nordic Growth Certificate from UC in 2023 for strong financial and operational growth; at the time of the Addtech acquisition it reported approximately 10 employees and SEK 60 million in annual turnover. Today it operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Addtech AB's Industrial Solutions business area, retaining its Lidköping base and product identity.
